Bio

I have less than ten years of clerical administrative experience and organizational skills. I have solid work experience as a local prefectural technical officer in the agricultural field. My major at University was soil science. I engaged in the floriculture section at the local office.

Since 2015, I have been working as a translator. My work language is English and Japanese, with Trados Studio for linguistic tasks. I have been a member of ATA for ten years now.  

I am ISO certified translator in patent, medicine & pharmacy by Babel University. I hope to work as a linguist in consultation, translation & interpretation, Project management, Business analytics, executive assistance, and training.
