Japanese-to-English game translation, editing, writing, and content creation by Andrew Echeverria
Howdy! I'm Andrew Echeverria.
I'm a freelance Japanese-to-English translator and editor based in Osaka, Japan with over half a decade of experience. I occasionally translate for the tourism and tech industries, but I specialize in entertainment media; mainly in game localization. You can view my past work and portfolio here.
On top of running the multi-platform horror narrative Kowai High and its various channels, you can usually find me talking about localization, my latest (non-NDA muzzled) projects, and all things horror-related on Twitter.
For project inquiries, feel free to contact me here.
Why YAIAAC (You And I As A Constellation)?
A few years before graduating from university, I played in a post-rock "side project" with my friends in the band A Hope For Home. I came up with the moniker "You And I As A Constellation" [title case sic] to use as our name.
Though short-lived, our sessions eventually evolved into songs on AHFH records, such as "Nightfall," the opening track on their album Realis.
I continue to use the moniker YAIAAC to harness the joy and creativity of those times in the professional work I do to this day.
