Marian Kinoshita (IJET-24)

Born and reared in the U.S, Marian Kinoshita established MDK Translations, Inc. in May 2008 after several years in the semiconductor business and 12 years of freelance translating. Following various requests, the firm naturally branched into dual areas of expertise. Japanese clients engage MDK for business, technical and cultural translation. Overseas clients, meanwhile, request telephone interpreting and onsite assistance.

Marian networks enthusiastically with her peers, collaborating with translators and editors to provide superlative value and accuracy. While the firm promises unflinching quality and deadlines, its services are flexible and tailor-made, harmonizing with business needs perpetually in flux.

Marian currently serves as JAT membership director. During her off hours, she escapes into the fresh air to cycle and geocache, both locally and globally.
