With a strong foundation in English education and years of hands-on experience in translation and localization, I bring a unique blend of linguistic precision, cultural sensitivity, and digital fluency to every project. I specialize in English–Indonesian (and vice versa) translation, focusing on editorial, academic, and digital content that demands clarity, consistency, and nuance.
My professional journey began with a degree in English Education from Palembang University, where I developed a deep understanding of language structure, grammar, and pedagogy. During this time, I also sharpened my ability to analyze texts critically and communicate ideas effectively—skills that later proved invaluable in my work as a translator and content localizer.
At PT Tempo Inti Media Tbk, I translated a wide range of journalistic materials for both print and digital publication. Working under tight editorial deadlines, I ensured that each piece maintained its original tone and intent while adapting appropriately for English-speaking audiences. My responsibilities extended beyond literal translation; I was often required to research topic-specific terminology and optimize the content for readability and engagement. This experience helped me develop a meticulous eye for detail and a deep respect for the integrity of the original message.
Later, as a Localization Specialist at Shopee Pte. Ltd, I handled large-scale localization projects across multiple platforms, including websites and mobile applications. I collaborated closely with writers, editors, designers, and developers to deliver user-centered content that was not only accurate but also culturally relevant. My work involved managing localization workflows, conducting market and language research, proofreading translated materials, and aligning tone and terminology with the brand's global voice. I also implemented SEO best practices to ensure translated content performed well in search engines and engaged the intended audience.
In terms of skills, I am proficient in bilingual proofreading, grammar correction, and editing for clarity and flow. I have a keen understanding of idiomatic expressions, tone variation, and target audience expectations—whether the content is academic, journalistic, or commercial. My critical thinking and time management skills allow me to juggle multiple projects effectively while maintaining high-quality output.
Beyond my technical capabilities, I pride myself on being a collaborative and reliable professional. I value communication, feedback, and continuous improvement, and I always strive to ensure that the final product not only meets but exceeds client expectations.
Whether you're looking for precise translation, culturally adapted content, or polished editorial work, I bring a commitment to excellence and a passion for language that ensures your message will resonate clearly and effectively with your audience.
