I have nearly a decade of copyediting experience, including developmental editing, line editing, and basic proofreading. I primarily work with non-native speakers of English in academia, so I have reviewed many types of scientific and medical papers, journal articles, and dissertations.

I am a freelance writer and English tutor from Honolulu, Hawaii, United States. I was previously working at the admissions and study abroad department at Hawaii Pacific University and had worked in multiple teaching assistant positions at the high school level. I am currently pursuing a PhD in International Area Cooperation at Pusan National University in Busan, South Korea. I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in International Studies and Master's Degree in Diplomacy & Military Studies. I studied abroad in Morocco at AMIDEAST Agdal; and at both Soonchunhyang University and Sogang University in South Korea. I recently also attained my TESOL Certification through UNI-Prep Institute. I wrote an op-ed piece on North Korea for the Honolulu Star-Advertiser. I was also an article writer for I Heart Korea (an online journal focusing on Hallyu (the Korean Wave) - culture, music, arts, and travel pieces) and Pangyao Magazine (a Hong Kong-based publication for overseas foreign workers (OFWs)). Some of my other writing experiences include - writing a short article for my university newspaper, the Kalamalama; several study abroad blogs; and several newsletters I published when I use to work in my university's International Admissions department. I also wrote a dissertation on "External and Internal Factors of Inter-Korean Relations in the 1970s and 2010s" and co-edited theses on "The Effectiveness of International Organizations in the Resolution of Inter-Ethnic Tensions: The Case of Kyrgyzstan" and "Strategic Studies of China’s Oceanic Expansion through the Belt and Road Initiative: Comprehensive Perspectives, Complexible Reasons and Challengeable Purposes". I had also helped edit a few chapters on a book on North Korean Policy. On the English tutoring side, I was formerly an exchange student for a year-long program at Soonchunhyang University in Asan, South Korea and had done conversational exchanges with ten Korean students a semester as part of a cultural internship. And in the summer, I worked as an English Camp Counselor at Soonchunhyang. I worked 3+ years in both Hawaii and South Korea as a teacher in many different academies, camps, and schools. My interests include traveling, writing, reading, hiking, watching movies, learning languages, and political debate/discussion. I am a dependable and very friendly, down-to-earth kinda guy. I am patient, and understanding as a teacher needs to be whether this will be in a group setting or through one-on-one tutoring. I am very flexible with my schedule and can work from home; if the job requires travel, then I can do so as well (depending on location).
