Who I am

Geared up
linguist

I have poured my efforts into this craft ever since I left 9-to-5 jobs to work full-time as a freelance language specialist in 2017. Today I’m a long-term vendor for international agencies and product teams, translating, writing and reviewing English and Vietnamese every day.

Vietnamese is my native language and English is near-native. A law degree in international trade taught me to read every clause carefully, and I still work that way.
