Meet the Next Generation of Localization Professionals

At BeatBabel, we believe in supporting and nurturing the next generation of localization professionals. Over the years, we have maintained a close partnership with Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey, recognizing the immense talent and fresh perspectives that MIIS students bring to the industry.

In this feature, we spoke with Minting Lu, a second-year TLM student, and Jinzhu Wuer, a first-year TLM student, about their journeys into localization. What inspired them to enter this field? How do they envision their future careers? Their stories showcase the curiosity, adaptability, and drive that define MIIS students and future localization leaders. 🌟

A big shoutout to Eva Klaudinyova, Yelena Proskurin, Winnie Heh, and all the incredible MIIS professors who are dedicated to training the next generation of localization professionals. Through their expertise, mentorship, and strong connections with industry professionals and companies, MIIS students gain hands-on experience, build their career paths, and develop the skills needed to thrive in this dynamic field. Their commitment not only empowers students but also allows us as an industry to embrace fresh ideas and young talent. 💡
