Bio

After a successful career in the digital arts and entertainment in the USA, I moved to Taiwan where I made a career switch to focus on freelance translation and localization projects. After 3 years of successfully completing hundreds of cases, I have built a solid experience as a freelancer and aspire to continue my translation/copy editing work as well as becoming a proofreader for the French language.

I like to discover new countries and cultures. I am fond of East Asia and I am a parent to a delightful half Vietnamese daughter who lives in Los Angeles and goes to a Chinese Mandarin emerging school.
