Bio:
I have been working in game translation since 2012, but I have been a gamer for much longer… From what I recall, my grandfather taught me how to read using a game!
As I grew up, I got drawn to video games, especially those involving tactical thinking or fast-paced action: platformers, beat’em ups, FPSs, tactical RPGs, etc.
Today, as a player, I enjoy mature games — no, not those ones! 😉 — that define new experiences or have something to say beyond the fun. As a translator, I am always glad to work on games with challenging dialogues, full of humor and thoughtful content.
My goal: help to make good games that help to make better people
Past projects:
Mobile games – 60+ games (city-builders, RPGs, puzzle games, other)
