Bio

I'm a Japan-based American freelance Japanese-to-English translator specializing in anime, manga, video game, film, and other dialogue-heavy translations.

I have translated (i.e., produced English-subtitle text for) well over 200 episodes of anime across several different TV series as well as several films. I also have experience translating and adapting manga.

In addition to majoring in Japanese at the University of Michigan, I have passed the highest level (i.e., level 1) of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) and have completed a course in Japanese-to-English translation. I take pride in my ability to write natural-sounding translations. I have been a full-time translator since 2010.

As of 2022, I am a contracted instructor for the anime translation class within the Professional J-to-E Visualmedia Translation Course at the Japan Visualmedia Translation Academy (JVTA).
