Good Stuff Gets Done!
No matter the ask, expect the end result to be....
Fast, Accurate, Attractive, & Thoughtful
Work Mind: A decade spent in a fast-paced magazine editorial department means I understand deadlines, and pride in keeping them. My career as a freelance writer and editor has refined my skills with client engagement, I know how to communicate effectively, and you can expect regular clear updates.
Complex Subjects: My academic background gives depth and breadth to my subjects. My former academic life included research in history, politics, economics, technology, culture, society, and much of what is found in between. I consider myself a generalist, but I take pride in looking at my subjects with an open mind and educated mindset.
Creative Teams: So often good product is the result of great teams, and my output is no different. 15 years in media has created a wealth of auxiliary talent to draw upon when needed. I know how to assemble a team of creatives, how to facilitate their smooth operation, and manage the entire production process.

Why Me?
Original Content
Creating impactful original content is a process that demands preparation, creativity, and clear direction. With 15 years of media experience, I know how to quickly assess what’s needed and provide realistic timelines, budgets, and feasibility studies to get your project underway.
Location is no barrier—I’ve worked globally, producing content in diverse environments. Whether working independently or directing small teams, I bring resourcefulness and adaptability to every project. Post-COVID, I’ve also honed skills in remote collaboration, directing local creative teams, and conducting online interviews effectively.
From thematic special features with striking visuals and compelling narratives to serialized articles and corporate advertorials, I specialize in delivering tailored content across print, web, or hybrid formats. Whatever your message, I’ll craft it to resonate with your audience.
Reshaping Content
With over 30 years immersed in Japanese society and culture, I bridge communication gaps between Japan and English-speaking audiences.
I began my translation career before the advent of AI tools, mastering the fundamentals of nuance and concept recreation. Today, I blend this expertise with technology to deliver accurate, culturally appropriate translations. Beyond literal translation, where possible I advocate for transcreation—adapting content to effectively communicate across cultural contexts.
From straight translation to rewriting and proofreading, I provide solutions tailored to your needs. I’ve worked with corporate clients, government agencies, and community organizations, and my background in academic editing spans diverse fields in the Social Sciences and Humanities. With me, you’re guaranteed precise and impactful bilingual communication.
Improving Communication
Whether you need original content, expertly translated material, or an entirely new website, I deliver customized solutions. My expertise includes crafting media promotion plans, creating content for private and government sectors, and offering innovative strategies to elevate your brand’s presence.
I’ve also facilitated successful international ventures between Europe and Japan, identifying opportunities, negotiating agreements, and supporting business launches. This experience allows me to provide perceptive, results-driven communication support to help you achieve your goals.
For those looking to refine their communication skills, I also design personalized English composition and language training programs, tailored to your specific requirements.
