Andy Klim

A lifelong gamer with a creative writing background, Andy Klim has worked full-time as a freelance localizer for eight years. His first job was as an unpaid editor/rewriter for Chaos Rings in 2009, and he has since gone on to work on over fifty titles spanning all platforms and genres, with credit recognition in Fossil Fighters: Frontier and Final Fantasy Dimensions 2, among others.
