Report SmilingBeginner's Profile

I am a 26-Year old "old man" and currently live in Southern California, United States. My major is Civil Engineering and will be transferring to MIT this fall (yes, typical nerdy Asian if you insist XD) The only active extracurricular I am doing currently are Kendo (sword arts), Mixed-martial arts, Basketball and Tennis.

I start translating anime, manga and light novels since age 11 (from Japanese to Chinese, German and/or Korean) , and have now translating hundreds of works in these nine years. Those are some memorable and rewarding experiences, after all, my goal is to let people enjoy Japanese culture without being hindered by language barriers. Note: I only start a few English translations three years ago, mainly because I don't think my English is competent enough and doing so will most likely enrage some tough crowds instead of pleasing them.

I was born in Shengyang, China, 1993
Lived in Nagoya and Tokyo, Japan; from age 3-8
Lived in South Korea, from age 8.5-9
Move to US, starting from age 13
Now an American citizen

Height: 175 cm (am I too short?)
Colleges attended: UC Berkerly, CalTech, MIT (2014 fall)
Biggest wish: Have a birthday party (my birthday was never celebrated in my life sigh...)
Language I can now: Chinese (Mandarin and Cantonese), German (Swiss) , Japanese, Korean, Indonesian. I am still learning Spanish (Espanol!) and English, since I am not very confident that my English is competent enough to communicate with native English speakers.
