About Me
My name is Zoe Womack
I'm a professional Japanese-English translator and linguist
based in Australia.
​
I specialise in the following kinds of translation:
-
Literary
-
Gaming
-
Business
-
Market Research
-
Tourism
-
Education
-
Social Sciences/Humanities
I have a Master of Translation Studies (Japanese) with Distinction.
I graduated with a perfect GPA, won a Student Excellence Award, and was even valedictorian!
​
So, you could definitely say that I have a passion for perfection!
I have a deep understanding of the Japanese language and culture through living in Japan for 9 years and passing JLPT N1, the highest level of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test. I established EZo Translation at the start of 2023, with the goal of becoming a bridge between Japan and the English-speaking world. As a native English speaker with a strong background in linguistics and the language industry, I have excellent knowledge of English grammar and punctuation. ​Combined with my advanced research skills, keen eye for detail, and passion for perfection, you can rest assured that your translations will be accurate, grammatically correct, and well written! You can hear more about my journey to becoming a translator in my valedictory speech video below.
