OBJECTIVE
AS the translator and interpreter, I am seeking the job in various fields for me to challenge, because my background allows me to act as a competent medium between English and Japanese whether oral or written in the various fields, due to my flexibilities and adaptabilities resulting from the working experiences in the job types, the job fields, and the places where I had worked.
Also the reasons of my understanding the conversations or documents in various fields are results of my carrier and my hobby which I should say the addiction to the characters in English or Japanese. My carrier as an architect in practice and teaching force me to understand various technologies like statics, dynamics, materials engineering, philosophy, theory of the space, geosciences and others, and as my hobby, I would read anything my eyes caught or my curiosity was attracted. As this addiction forces me to read sentences from History, Natural Science, Engineering and others in fiction or non-fictions, the results are about 1000 books per one year for the last 30 years and this number is just for books, not including magazines, newspaper or other kinds of written documents.
