I specialize in computers (software, hardware, internet), linguistics, and in entertainment, particularly video games, anime, and manga.
I have been studying Japanese for seven years, including one year studying classical Japanese at Nagasaki University, and have proficiency equivalent to level 1 (the highest level) of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (Nihongo Nouryoku Shiken). I have a BA with a minor in Asian language and literature.
I am a native English language speaker with above-average writing skills, and I've had some small press fiction and poetry publications.
My experience in translation includes working on the translation of the RPG "Dragon Warrior VII" from Japanese to English, and a number of amateur translations of manga and essays. My rates are reasonable, and commesurate with my experience.
I am proficient with HTML, and can do web page translation efficiently. Please feel free to contact me for my resume.
