Elizabeth Butters, Business Development Manager at XTM International and W.L.

Since joining the organization, I’ve been involved in many UK chapter events which aim to educate, support, and empower localization professionals, bridging the gap for students to enter the localization industry. I enjoy sharing my skills and experience with students and giving back what I’ve learned throughout my career. XTM International has been immensely supportive, enabling me to grow professionally and personally within the community.”
