Profile:
Over sixteen years of experience as a technical translator and interpreter having translated more than 15 million words in technical fields such as nuclear power and renewable energies, the chemical and pharmaceutical industry as well as in the shipbuilding and oil industry. I started to interpret for GMP audits since 2011, cooperating with European independent GMP auditors (We’ve carried out more than 100 audits of major pharmaceutical plants and labs around China), including FDA audit. I have translated a wide range of documents such as reports for the World Association of Nuclear Operators (WANO), the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO) and the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), as well as Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) of Chinese nuclear power plants, Advanced Information Packages (AIPs), Area for Improvements reports (AFI) and Design-Informed Review reports (DIR). Through my work as a translator and interpreter for the WANO and the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), I have had the chance to visit almost all nuclear power plants in China.
 
For technical areas other than nuclear, I also worked as interpreter and translator for Mitsui & Co, I translated for the Chinese technicians involved in the construction of a chemical plant, including civil work, equipment erection, pipeline arrangement, overall commissioning and lab test. The duration of the project was of 2 years (2008-2010) in which I traveled 7 times to India for this project. Furthermore, in 2014 I was the technical interpreter for the Peer Review carried out by the WANO to the China National Nuclear Power Corporation (CNNP). During that period, we visited and reviewed the Fuqing Nuclear Power Plant and the CNNP headquarter.
