I am a Chinese-English translator specializing in the translation of creative texts and academic scholarship. My primary native language is English.
I excel at creative translations of texts with
structural requirements, such as singable or rhyming translations of
song lyrics, or 'transcreative' adaptations of poetry for fixed verse
forms.
I am also an experienced legal translator with a background in law practice.
