Personal Statement I bring over 20 years of diverse professional experience across healthcare, finance, and IT industries, specializing in translation, interpretation, and administrative management. My career journey began in Canada, where I worked in a multicultural healthcare environment that shaped my language proficiency and cross-cultural communication skills. After returning to Korea, I transitioned into financial translation at the Korea Exchange, where I discovered a passion for linguistics. This led me to pursue a Master's degree in English Translation, graduating as valedictorian. My academic achievements and professional experience have enabled me to deliver high-quality translation and localization services in dynamic and demanding environments. In my current role, I focus on IT-related translations and corporate website localization, bridging cultural and linguistic gaps to support global business operations. My commitment to continuous

Helping executives, professionals, and students speak English with confidence — without the fear of making mistakes. For the past 8 years, through my company Ark Management Consulting, I've coached 100+ clients — from Fortune 500 executives to students preparing for Ivy League admissions — to communicate more naturally and confidently in English. A few things that shape how I coach: English–Korean interpreter/translator for the United Nations (Lebanon) Lived in the USA for 10 years, then spent the last decade as a South Korean digital nomad across 8 world regions Traveled to 117 countries — and I'll finish visiting every country in the world before 2028 Helped clients land roles at Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Amazon, and relocate to English-speaking countries (USA, UK, Australia) Helped students gain admission to Harvard and other top universities Coached learners to hit their target TOEFL/IELTS scores Coached students who went on to become national and global public speaking champions Why I coach the way I do: I learned English as a second language myself. I remember the stress of speaking in public, the fear of being laughed at. That's exactly why I built my program around removing fear first — because you can't improve what you're afraid to practice. Most of my clients stay with me for 3+ years, some for 8+. That only happens when someone genuinely feels progress and enjoys the process. My approach comes down to three things: 100% ownership — this is your English journey, not mine. Consistency — if you commit to 3 hours a week, that's non-negotiable, no matter how busy life gets. Enjoyment — lessons and homework are fully customized around your career, passions, and interests. That's what makes the progress fast and sustainable. Whether you're preparing for executive presentations, job interviews, studying abroad, or just want to speak without hesitation — my goal is the same: turn English from your weakness into your strongest asset. Feel free to reach out with any questions about what to expect from working together. I'm also happy to share 57 client testimonials on request. Thank you for reading — and may your star continue to soar.
