Summary

I am very interested in a career in translation or localization, and really hope to put the language skills I have built for years to good use. I have a Master's degree in Mandarin Chinese and have lived in China for 3 years. I can speak Mandarin with a high degree of fluency, and have been studying the language since I was 14 years old. I believe that with my language abilities and cultural background I can offer a unique perspective and help bridge gaps in communication.
