About me
I started my freelance career as a translator, working mostly for publishers and focusing on Humanities fields. I also wrote travel press and translated Festival reports from English to Traditional Chinese for Travelmate.com.tw (website closed at the end of 2004). Meanwhile, I also do proofreading and revision for my clients. Starting from 2004, I have had an ongoing contract with a localization company as one of their freelance translators. Most projects are mainly for website localization, marketing promotions, company training manuals, software localization as well as legal documents (general and contracts).
Starting from 2007, I have another ongoing contract with a subtitle company which is located in Italy.

Before being a freelancer, I had working experience as an editor for Journalist Weekly which is a political-economic oriented magazine, as a contracted editor and administrative assistant for Veda Ltd. which is a public relations consultant, and as an assistant to the marketing manager for Disney Enterprises (Taiwan Branch).

Since June, 2007, my friend, who is an English native speaker, and I have been offering Chinese-English translation services as a team. So far, we have done various projects; the fields have included organizational profiles, artists' profiles, press releases, marketing documents, product manuals, transcription and so on...The translation service with a native Mandarin speaker and a native English speaker, deliver a double-security on the quality. It means you have one translator who does the translation and also a proofer ensuring an accurate, properly-stated translation.

Any inquiries, please feel free to contact me through proz.com
