Ayako has supported me when meeting business partners in Tokyo. She was extremely well prepared, which included subject matter-specific terminology from Supply Chain and Sustainability related contexts. She provided great advice for me in preparing the meetings, fast and correct English-Japanese interpretation during the meetings, and valuable analysis of what was said “between the lines” afterwards.
I will definitely use her services again next time!

Life and living is all about communication. And Ms. Ayako Sohmiya is a facilitator of perfect communication. Her amazing passion, commitment and dedication address both the art and science of translation. Having traveled extensively across the globe, she has amassed a deep wealth of understanding of multiple cultures which gives her the unique power to translate from a cultural, rather than merely a literal context. She is certainly my go-to person for any kind of translation.

I have worked with Ayako-san for over two years on two key projects with suppliers in Japan for the fabrication of equipment to make lithium ion batteries. She has been instrumental in helping to develop and maintain effective communication with suppliers and was a tremendous asset to our projects. Her abilities to support and guide us as a customer to help foster a positive collaboration with our suppliers has greatly contributed to our successful project completion. She maintains a very positive and collaborative spirit for support and has a very keen attention to details to ensure that all topics are covered and effectively supported to help resolve issues. I highly recommend her for support of interpretation needs.
