Jilly Bong’s translation journey began with fashion journalism, but it was her editorial role aboard an international cruise that truly deepened her passion for the craft. Armed with a Master's in Translation from USM, she now thrives as a Chinese-English freelance translator, specializing in both creative and commercial projects. Her early work in web novels expanded into a diverse range of genres, including romance, fantasy, action, adventure, and Isekai. As her portfolio grows, she’s now exploring poetry and literary works. A cultural adventurer at heart, Jilly is open to navigate underrepresented voices, novelizations, historical fiction, and more.
