Bio

I have worked as a professional Japanese to English translation in the Computer, Electronics, and Semiconductor fields for over 20 years. I lived in Japan from 1991-1997, where I operated my own English school and translation service. 

My translation experience includes freelance translation for companies like Nikon, Yamaha, Sharp, NTT, Seiko-Epson, Tokyo Electron and many others.

I have worked five years as a programmer and product manager for Plugable Technologies, a computer hardware company, specializing in USB and Bluetooth devices. 

I also worked for four years as a in-house translator and technical instructor for Nikon Precision Inc., a Nikon subsidiary in the US that produces steppers, scanners, and other high-end tools for the semiconductor industry.  

I worked for 1.5 years as a reporter and copy editor for the Washington Times newspaper. 

I have a BA degree from Regents College, University of the State of New York, Albany, NY
