Translation Services
Specializing in Japanese Art and Culture

I have been providing professional Japanese to English translation and editing services to major Japanese and North American art museums, private collectors of Japanese art, academics, and individual artists and performers since 1998.

Former clients include public institutions such as the Tokyo National Museum and Kyushu National Museum as well as private museums such as the Nezu Museum, Okada Museum of Art, Tokugawa Art Museum, and major exhibition producers and promoters in the media industry, such as The Asahi Shimbun, NHK Promotions, and Nihon Keizai Shinbun.

The majority of my translations currently consist of museum exhibition catalogues, however, I also provide translations for a wide range of purposes, from museum gallery panels and signage to workshop and symposium proceedings, academic papers for presentation and publication, museum guidebooks, travel literature, website and publicity materials, and interview transcripts.

Currently, my primary focus is on topics related to Japanese tea culture and related arts.

Please see my Profile pages <here> for examples of past translation projects and topics.
