About Me

Hi, I’m Evon, a bilingual content strategist, translator, and writer based in Malaysia.
With over 10 years of experience in financial journalism, corporate communications, and PR translation, I specialize in turning English content into natural, impactful Chinese texts (and vice versa).

My expertise covers:
• Corporate press releases & PR materials
• Financial and business reports
• Marketing & branding content (social media, websites, campaigns)

Clients love my work because I don’t just translate, I adapt tone, style, and cultural nuance, ensuring your message connects with both English and Chinese audiences.

If you’re looking for a reliable partner to elevate your brand voice across markets, let’s work together.
