Masa Kajiki
Masa Kajiki worked as a hotel reservations manager at a Westin hotel in Japan.

In 2006, he started his own patent translation agency, MK Translation Firm, in Kobe, Japan. In 2009, the firm moved to Kitahama, Osaka, which is one of the patent business districts in Japan, in order to serve their clients better. He has appeared at two JAT events̶Project Osaka (Best Business Practices for Translators/Interpreters) and IJET Miyazaki (panel discussion). He also produces and broadcasts translation seminars using USTREAM.
