I am a native speaker of Bahasa Indonesia, have excellent command in English. I have been a translator/interpreter for over ten years: full-time, part-time and freelance. I speak Advanced French (level C1) and notions of Javanese. I love language and am still amazed by its power. Though there are other forms of art, which I also love, language is the one that is closest to me.

A translator specialized in engineering, mining, and metallurgy with 8 years of experience in mining industry. Broadening my expertise in translation, the Covid-19 pandemic has also opened a new translation journey for me as a medical device manual translator. Hundreds of thousands of words have been translated for a leading medical device company since 2020. Online gaming localization is another part of the journey that I am grateful for and I proudly say that I am a pro gaming translator.

I am a native Indonesian translator who have worked in this industry since 2005. My area of expertise is Marketing, IT, Business Management, Literacy, Linguistic, Legal text, and Animal husbandry.

In 2006-2016 I had actively translated various text from legal text, technical text, web localization for JAC Recruitment Indonesia. Recently I have translated 495000 words regarding data center and could computing.

A translator by choice and by chance since 2005. An individual with a can do attitude, minimum supervision and able to understand initiatives. Websites, software, and interpreting projects has taken me to places and this has been possible thanks to the great cooperation of the agencies and clients for facilitating a better work environment for the final product. This is also been achieved by the enthusiasm shown by clients to bring closer to their facilities to better accomplish the same goal.

I started as an in-house patent translator in an IP law firm. Currently I have become a full-time freelance translator, but my core competence in patent translation is still existing and going strong. Today I work as a freelance patent translator at another IP law firm, and they supply me with a steady flow of jobs every month.
Below are some patent publication that I have translated to Indonesian:
