    I am a freelancer working as an Editor and Translator (both English and Chinese) for nearly 2 1/2 years. I also had rich work experience after I graduated from University. I worked full time as Editor with two publishing companies. I worked at Kam Pui Enterprises Ltd trading as World Publishing Company and Seashore Publishing Company from 2000-2007; one of the prestigious publishing companies in Hong Kong belonging to Popular Group. Then, I worked as an Editor at Wan Li Book Co., Ltd. for a short time. These work experiences gave me the opportunity to learn and practise the skills of working in editing and translation.

    Besides my work experience, in my studies, I gained knowledge of Magazine and Book Editing; Translation; Mass media and public communication; News Editing; News article writing; Copywriting; Creative Thinking; Novel Writing; Old Chinese Literature like Song Ci; Tang Shi; Kun Qu and Classic Drama etc. These courses in my study have given me professional knowledge of literature; editing; translation; writing; communication and PR skills.

    I finished and was awarded my Degree in Journalism and Communication at the Chu Hai University of Hong Kong in year 2000. I have also been awarded a Certificate in English and Chinese at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. Recently, I have been studying for my Masters Degree in Chinese Language and Literature at Hong Kong Baptist University as a part time student. I have now completed all course subjects successfully and have handed in the final paper, I will be awarded my Masters Degree it the coming October.
