Brandon Blaisdell (brandon-blaisdell)
Hello! My name is Brandon and I am 1/4 Japanese. I've been reading, writing, and speaking Japanese since I was in high school. I currently use Japanese on a daily basis (business Japanese) for my current vocation but also enjoy the occasional translation work on the side. I was a Japanese major in college (graduated with my BA) and an English minor. I am well-read and have also had experiences in a variety of vocations utilizing Japanese language in multiple contexts. I was also pre-business in college and have a strong command of business English/Japanese. Translation work I prefer to do is with marketing, merchandise, online retail, and technology, but I also like to dabble in periodicals and literature. Please let me know if you would like your work translated by me. Thank you!
