BACKGROUND
I was born

proficiency in German and French. I studied in English until high school and
later pursued higher education in Japan and France, including study abroad
experiences in Korea, Argentina, and Hungary. Post-university, I joined a major
trading company, working extensively in several countries, which enhanced my
fluency in multiple languages. Having studied over 20 languages and teaching
Japanese in Korea and Taiwan, I've refined my linguistic capabilities. These experiences have shaped my career as a translator, where I now primarily
focus on eight languages but remain open to translating others as requested.
