I am a professional and qualified translator/transcreator/editor with 14 years of experience working between English and Chinese (simplified & traditional HK). I specialize in legal translation and have worked for a maritime law firm in-house for two years and as a freelancer for nine years. I have assisted many clients in creating legal relations and resolving disputes. My end clients include Chinese and American courts and law firms.

I am an expert in marketing translation and transcreation. Having worked in New Zealand for years and living with my Chinese/kiwi cross-cultural family, I have the cultural sensitivity essential to successful marketing communications. I have helped a number of brands to navigate international markets, including smartphone and smart home appliance brands, outdoor brands, education app operators, and magazine agencies.

My experience extends to the fields of business, general finance, tourism, hospitality, gaming, extreme sports, immigration, maritime affairs, literature, and sewing.
