Pharmacist, Osaka Medical and Pharmaceutical University 

(Formerly Osaka University of Pharmaceutical Sciences)

M.A. in Linguistics, Osaka University 

(Formerly Osaka University of Foreign Studies)

I specialize in medical translation, with a focus on healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and life sciences. 

After graduating from university, I worked for a major Japanese pharmaceutical company (Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation), where I managed the translation department and involved in medical and pharmaceutical translation for 17 years. In 2016, I started my own translation business specializing in the medical and pharmaceutical fields.

Over the past 25 years, including my time in the translation department of the pharmaceutical company, I have translated numerous medical and pharmaceutical documents. My experience working for the pharmaceutical company helped me to gain knowledge of a wide variety of pharmaceutical documents from research to post-marketing, including pharmaceutical study reports, scientific papers, non-clinical and clinical study reports, various technical documents such as regulatory filings, post-marketing surveillance documents, presentation materials, and press release materials.

My education and professional experience above enable me to provide high-quality translations.

My clients include major Japanese pharmaceutical companies, universities, research institutes, hospitals, CROs, and government agencies.
