ABOUT ME

Bridging Language, Culture, and Business

With a background in linguistics and a deep appreciation for the power of communication, I’ve spent years helping businesses navigate cross-cultural environments with clarity and confidence.

Working across the United States and throughout Greater China — including Mainland China and Hong Kong — I’ve developed a strong understanding of the nuances that shape successful international partnerships.

What started as a passion for language naturally evolved into a broader mission: empowering organizations to connect across borders, bridge cultural gaps, and grow globally.

Inkwell Global Advisory was born out of this vision, building on the foundation of my U.S.-based company, My WordShop, LLC.

Today, I advise businesses on effective communication, cultural strategy, and market expansion — with a focus on helping teams collaborate and thrive in a globalized world.

Beyond Words: Cross-Cultural Communication
Beyond Words: What Cross-Cultural Communication Really Takes

When companies cross borders, they often treat communication like translation: find the right words, and the meaning will follow. But real understanding — the kind that builds trust, loyalty, and lasting partnerships — isn’t that simple.

True cross-cultural communication goes deeper.
It’s about context, memory, logic, emotion — the invisible systems beneath the words.

Miss those, and even the clearest message can falter.

This is where the real work begins:
Not just translating language, but translating thinking.
Not just stepping across, but building a bridge strong enough to carry growth for years to come.

This is a first look at my upcoming article on what cross-cultural communication truly demands — and why it’s one of the most underestimated skills in global business today.

Stay tuned for more expert perspectives on the evolving world of international business and cross-cultural communication.
