Statement: Kitty Au was born in Hong Kong where she worked as a journalist covering general, legal and political news for 10+ years. In 2005, she went to the UK and earned a Master’s degree in Translation Studies from Edinburgh University with Distinction. Currently based in Hong Kong, she is a professional copywriter completing projects for governments, NGOs, international corporations and SMEs.
