I love language, which is why I started Metrolingua. I currently translate Japanese and French, but I've also translated Spanish, Portuguese, and German. I speak Japanese pretty well and am a native English speaker. I used to speak more languages, but I've been putting more of my energy into radio, which is drying up due to consolidation and syndication. I also teach English as a Second Language (ESL) to adults, which is really enjoyable.

Thanks for the shout-out! If I'm ever zipping through the Chicago area, we must go get a coffee and chat about writer-y things!
That Chaucer blog is just hilarious -- and just the sort of thing you'd expect of a grad student in English who has managed to keep a sense of humor!
Yea--and we can chat about Taiwan and other stuff I agree with that you dare utter in academia.
