Japanese–English
business interpreting.

Consecutive and liaison interpreting for executive meetings, negotiations, technical presentations, and company visits in the United States, with preparation tailored to your subject matter and materials.

Meaning, tone,
and business context.

I bring over 20 years of Japanese–English business communication experience to conversations between Japanese and U.S. participants. My work combines interpreting with attention to cultural context, professional protocol, and the purpose of each discussion, from a single meeting to a visit involving several hosts.

Questions about working together

What are consecutive and liaison interpreting?

In consecutive interpreting, speakers pause between segments for the interpretation. Liaison interpreting supports exchanges between participants in smaller meetings and throughout a visit. Include your meeting format when requesting availability.

Can I book an interpreter for a meeting that is already arranged?

Yes. Interpreting can be requested for a single business meeting, presentation, or site visit. Advance appointment coordination and wider visit support can be scoped separately if needed.

Do you support public-sector and educational visits?

Yes. Alongside corporate and technical assignments, I support Japanese municipal and educational delegations with interpreting and on-site communication during U.S. visits and training programs.

Can I make the inquiry and share materials in Japanese?

Yes. Inquiries and advance planning can be handled in Japanese or English. Include your dates, cities, topics, and any preparation materials with your request.
