I am a dedicated Japanese/English interpreter based in San Diego, California, with a unique perspective shaped by 20 years of living in Japan and over a decade in the United States. This dual experience has strengthened my bilingual skills and deepened my understanding of the cultures and business practices in both countries, allowing me to effectively bridge communication gaps and foster connections.

With a degree in Hospitality and Tourism Management from San Diego State University and experience managing a team of 35 in the hospitality industry, I’ve honed exceptional communication and business skills. My approach to interpreting goes beyond words—it’s about creating a personalized and supportive environment that ensures clear understanding and meaningful relationships.

Having experienced firsthand how language barriers and cultural nuances can pose challenges, I am committed to bridging those gaps. By understanding your specific requirements, I strive to provide accurate interpretation while fostering trust and connection between all parties.

I look forward to partnering with you to navigate your communication needs with confidence.
