Qualifications: Japan Translation Federation Honyaku Kentei Level 1, Japanese to English (Medicine & Pharmaceutics); Master of Arts in Translation and Interpretation, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore 

I am a seasoned professional medical translator based in vibrant Singapore. My areas of expertise are clinical research, medicine, healthcare and biomedical science. Having established a strong foundation in translation since 2016, I have dedicated myself to mastering the art of accurately and efficiently translating a diverse range of documents within these specialized fields.

I take immense pride in delivering translations that go beyond linguistic accuracy. Each translation I undertake is a testament to my commitment to not only translate words but also capture the intended meaning and tone of the original content in the most natural manner possible.
