Subtitle Translator @ Phoenixgate Solutions 凤凰桥

About

I specialize in translating Chinese video content into fluent, natural English, with a strong focus on cultural nuance, audience clarity, and fast turnaround. With a background in broadcasting and media, I view subtitles not just as text, but as part of a broader storytelling experience — aligning tone, pacing, and emotional rhythm to match viewer expectations. My journey began in visual design, where I completed over 100 projects in branding and content creation. This creative foundation now enriches my subtitling and content adaptation work, helping me ensure both linguistic accuracy and aesthetic harmony across platforms. While translation is currently my main focus, I continue to stay involved in select visual projects — especially those where words, visuals, and audience intent intersect. I’m open to cross-disciplinary roles that value communication, culture, and creative collaboration. With strengths in cross-cultural sensitivity, media literacy, and production workflows, I strive to deliver content that is both precise and resonant. If you're looking for someone who bridges language, media, and design, I’d be happy to connect.
