About me
I am a Japanese-to-English translator living in Brooklyn, New York. I started blogging in 2010, and I have been working as a full-time freelancer since 2014. I am also a member of the Society of Writers, Editors, and Translators (SWET). For more details about my specialties, please see my services page.
When I’m not working, I like to read, juggle, try to make pixel art, and play card games. I am also a big fan of word games and puzzles, and a recent hobby of mine is making crosswords, riddles, and other word puzzles in both English and Japanese.
