Experience
*** As a freelancer ***
I have been translating millions of words from English to Chinese, for direct clients and agencies, in and beyond China;
I have been translating much less often from Chinese to English, for clients who do not understand English and seek accurately translated content over perfect syntax;
I have been transcribing audio and video files from Cantonese and Mandarin and translating the texts into English.
*** Prior to freelancing ***
I had extensive exposure to English, Cantonese, and Mandarin, speaking and writing them during 4 years managing the Product Development Department of a China-based gifts & crafts factory, working closely with HK, TW, and UK expatriates as well as the US-based boss (an amazing artistic talent and business woman) and colleagues by means of emails, conference calls, in-person meetings, factory visits, etc. The capabilities of accurate interpretation and translation between English and Chinese in that bilingual work environment were not optional.

Work Experience
Giftworks Limited (owned by Joan Baker Designs, a leading US painted glass company) *Project Coordinator (2005)
Giftworks Limited *Product Development Supervisor (2006-2009)
The job involved fluent and effective communication in spoken and written English as I worked closely day to day with my Managing Director (from Hong Kong), my US counterpart (a Taiwanese-American lady), and from time to time the boss lady from the US.
I started freelance translation since 2008, mostly through connections.
