1. Translation: English to Korean, Korean to English, French to Korean, French to English I grew up speaking 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. 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. News words are made, some die, and some shift. The pattern mirrors the shifts in how we understand 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.
