About

Hi, I’m Jessica Tuulia Jakara. I’m a bilingual translator, illustrator, and designer with a knack for preserving brand voice and creating localized content for Finnish and Lithuanian markets. I enjoy collaborating with clients and teams to deliver accurate translations, engaging visuals, and well-structured materials that are culturally relevant.

My experience spans fintech, education, and tech, including roles as a service delivery specialist, ESL teacher, and office assistant. I love planning lessons and projects, developing content, and keeping operations organized, precise, and aligned with legal and policy requirements.
