I studied English Language and Culture at SISU (Sichuan International Studies University) in Chongqing from 1992 to 1996. I obtained my Master's Degree in International Communication from Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia (1998-2000). After working at NJStar Software (www.njstar.com) briefly, I began my 10-year long working-from-home lifestyle without travelling to any work place (except for occasional interpreting jobs). I have long realized that I am a person who enjoys working alone. :-)I am self-taught in web design and related computer skills. I have vast experience in making use of the Internet for my work, study and life in general. I consider myself a computer guru (in terms of using it). *_^I am also a professional Chinese-English two way translator (accredited by NAATI in 2000 and 2001 respectively). I have strong interest in language, culture and literature. I will focus on reading and possibly writing in these fields in future.By the way, I love soccer, Chinese chess and singing too! :-)Specialties: Translation and interpreting (NAATI accredited Chinese-English two way translator). Professional web designer & graphic designer. Following are some of my websites:- Chongqing Expat Club website (www.cqexpat.com)- Gary Web Design (www.garywebdesign.com)- Chinese Artist Guo Xianzhong (www.chineseelite.com)- European language translation service (www.austranslation.com)Recently I just discovered I have another speciality: cooking delicious noodles (egg noodle and mince noodle)!
