I'm passionate about

Using my bilingual skill to help TED talks spread inspiring ideas to all the people in the world, disregarding to the language barriers.

An idea worth spreading

No matter who you are, your time in this world is counting down so don't wait for tomorrow to do the things you love. Just do it now!

The TED story

After taking a long career break as a full time parent, I am determinedly seeking a career path which is inspiring, rewarding and learning new ideas every day. Thanks to this opportunity TED is giving to me. Through translating and transcribing for TED talks, I not only gain precious professional experience, but also get motivated by all speakers in the videos I translated /transcribed. Nothing in the world can make me feel happier when I am doing something meaningful and feeling that I am moving forwarding, enhancing the translation skills, and enriching my life everyday.
