1. Translation: English to Korean, Korean to English, French to Korean, French to English I grew up speaking both English and Korean. As a French major at Yale, I had the opportunity to study at Sorbonne Nouvelle in Paris, where I also spent two summers working at Galerie Maeght and Atelier Isabelle Menu. These experiences have shaped my understanding of nuances in English, Korean, and French, each embedded in its own rich cultural history. Since joining Upwork, I have translated a wide range of texts, including emails, letters, pitch decks, websites, and legal documents. I have also interpreted for webinars, corporate meetings, and court hearings. Good translations are not just accurate, but relevant. Language is dynamic and adaptive. News words are created, others become obsolete, and some shift in meanings. This pattern reflects changes in our collective view of the world. I aim to deliver high-quality work, grounded in cultural insight and seven years of industry experience. 2. Editing As an editor, I support projects at every stage—from shaping ideas to proofreading the final draft. I specialize in essays, statements, cover letters, and presentations. Writing is not easy. Sharing stories with strangers makes us feel vulnerable. We're never sure if we've used the right word or the right tone. I offer clear suggestions while highlighting each writer’s unique voice, ensuring a compelling read. About Me: I graduated from Yale in 2016 with a BA in French and Art History. While at Yale, I received the 2015 Scott Prize for the best French essay. (The paper looked at camera movement and spatial language in the 2013 film Blue Is the Warmest Color.) I also helped found the Yale Photography Society, co-organizing the annual student exhibit, and taught Korean as a peer tutor at the Center for Language Study. My early career began with short-term projects abroad: I translated curatorial texts at Galerie Maeght in Paris and edited a book by the residents of MeetFactory, a contemporary art center in Prague. After moving to LA, I interned at Matthew Marks and the American Cinematheque. At the latter, I had the unique opportunity to live interpret French intertitles for L’Horloge magique (1928), Starevich's surreal puppet animation. Thanks to Gwen Deglise, then head programmer of the Cinematheque, who recommended me to Outfest, I screened short and feature submissions at the nonprofit for four years. Most recently, in 2022, I worked as a language consultant for an episode of the AppleTV show Little America. I translated parts of the original script into Korean and assisted the dialect coach, script supervisor, and 1st AD on set.

I am a deligent personal with passionate heart to help others. My multi-cultural background involving South Korea, Sri Lanka and the United States has nurtured me a professional translation ability, a smooth communication skill and a respect for different cultures. I worked as a tutor for 3 years, building foundations to assist one's academic pursuit tailored to their own needs. I believe that a true learning happens not when a teacher merely pours information but when a student is encouraged to explore a subject. An engaged interaction with student is what I promise with students for their true learning experience with me. There certainly are subtle nuances causing conflicts between languaged during translation. I have been exposed to not only Korean and American but also Southern Asian and British culture, allowing me to catch and appropriately translate without such conflict.
