Experience

Moderator, translator
August 2015 to September 2015Company Name － City

I was born in New York and lived in Saudi Arabia, Philadelphia, Singapore, Belgium and Israel before finally settling in Korea in 1997.
Due to my international upbringing, I've fully mastered the English language, forming a strong foundation both culturally and linguistically, and have also developed a true to life sense of globalism.
During the years of my travels, I have met, interacted with and learned how to work with people from all cultures, race and backgrounds.
These experiences led me to become a bridge like entity within the international expat community, being in the forefront in introducing Korean culture to those who were not familiar.
After my extensive travelling in which I received the best American education system each country had to offer, I returned to Korea in 1997 and finished my university education with a major in journalism from Sungkyunkwan University as well as my military service, further solidifying my understanding of the Korean culture.
In terms of my translation/interpretation background I've constantly worked in both industries even when attending university.
Here is a video clip of me interpreting for David Copperfield on his South Korean tour.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NemRv0D8XF8 (link to video) As to my most recent work experience in Seoul Korea, IGM Global was, and is currently in the process of setting up offices in Beijing and Singapore.
Because the content that we provided for two years through our online educational video service, Aha! CEO, was geared mainly towards the Korean market, in order to effectively enter the Singaporean market, we had to go through a process of localizing the content, replacing Korean business practice examples and numeric data that was more applicable to not only Singaporeans, but towards the many CEOs residing in Singapore.
This meant that we had to translate 500+ scripts into English and because there were many different factors involved, our team had to effectively coordinate our efforts in uploading the finished video contents onto our website (www.biscuit.com) twice a week.
During the year that I worked for the company, not only was I responsible for translating the scripts that were used when filming the video content, but also various corporate pamphlets and power point presentations, but most importantly, I was responsible in organizing and leading the freelance translators that were working for our division.
There were a number of challenges in working with various translators.
In order to insure that we spent as less time as possible in revising the translated material that was given to us, we had to be very specific in educating the translators in order to mold their work to pass our standards, and in doing so, provide them with specific phrases and lexicons that are used in the industry.
If the translators had difficulty in understanding the Korean script, we had to get verification from our content development team before providing them with the appropriate answers to their questions.
After receiving the translated material, I then had to work internally with my English division team members as well as our content development team in making major revisions if needed.
Our division then had to work with the media team in checking if our translated material was presentable on screen, and if not, had to make changes in order to fully present the aesthetic look and feel of the video.
The time I spent at IGM was crucial in that it forced me to become hyper aware of time scheduling and organization, work related skills that helped me immensely in terms of being much more efficient in not only translation work, but towards other areas of my life as well.
It's been close to 2 years since I relocated to the United States and have since then had various office jobs as well as being a freelance translator, interpreter and moderator.
Most recently I've worked as the main moderator and translator in a project involving Hyundai Motors and Brain and Research, the leading neuropsychological marketing company in Korea.
Our goal was to find out how the UI of the GPS system affected and contributed towards the participant's preconceptions and how it led to the changes in their perceptions in relation to the 3 car brands that we focused on.
The study was conducted in both Los Angles and New York and involved a sample size of 200 individuals, all of varying age, race and educational backgrounds.
During this process I was involved in constituting appropriate changes towards the questionnaire structure as well as rephrasing questions 6 weeks prior to the on-site survey.
