I also translate Japanese audio and self-published manga for English audiences and am exploring manga illustration as a side project. I am fluent in English and Chinese, can converse in everyday Japanese, and am actively learning more about AR and educational game design. I thrive in collaborative environments, enjoy solving design challenges, and am always eager to learn new tools and techniques to deliver engaging multimedia experiences.
