Advertising and PR
My writing is used on the Web and in print around the world by major automakers and other large corporations. The following are some examples of companies for which I have written. Please feel free to contact me for actual samples of my writing or a quote on your project.
Although my main clients are large Japanese companies, not all of the writing I do for them is translation-based. In fact, I do about 20% of the work for my largest client in English without a Japanese source.

Other Japanese companies
Most of the above companies are household names in Japan and the United States, and the smallest of them has over $300 million in sales per year. I have also helped other smaller Japanese companies as well. I am often asked to create website content, video scripts, and print pieces for use in English-speaking markets outside Japan.
Local companies
Based in Indianapolis, I write regularly for companies around Indiana and outside the state as well. These companies include manufacturers and a wide variety of service providers. About 80% of what I do for local companies is website content, the remainder being print ads, brochures, direct mail pieces, and other marketing materials. With my marketing background, I am especially good at reviewing a company’s marketing messages and producing complete content for its website.
