About

Hello, I'm a freelance writer that specializes in stories of Japanese media, the creators of these works, and those who make it accessible to the wider world. Through the process of sharing their stories, I’ve found myself diving headfirst into the world of localization as an editor and copywriter.My journalistic writing has been previously featured on Anime News Network, Anime Herald, and Zimmerit.Currently, I edit the light novel series Magic Stone Gourmet for J-Novel Club and provide copywriting for projects produced by MediaOCD for Discotek Media and AnimEigo.Notable titles include: Urusei Yatsura (1981), Berserk (1997), Belladonna of Sadness, Captain Harlock, Riding Bean, Otaku no Video, and Bubblegum Crisis.
