Christine H.
English-Korean Translator, Interpreter, Voice Artist&Virtual Assistant
Hello. My name is Christine. I was born in the U.S. and lived in South Korea for most of my childhood, so my identity is a mix of South Korean and American cultures. I attended kindergarten, elementary, middle school, high school, and college in South Korea, and I went to graduate school in the US. I lived in the US for 7 years and have lived in South Korea for more than 30 years. I identify myself as 90 percent of Korean and 10 percent of American. I speak Korean as mother tongue and speak English fluently for work. I believe my background and experience have prepared me well for language and marketing projects in Korean and English, including English-Korean translation, medical interpretation, data annotation, surveys, interviews, Korean voice-over, simple graphic design, etc. [Native Korean Speaker] Korean is my mother tongue. My proficiency in Korean has contributed to AI training since 2018. All of the projects required me to pass a qualification test to join. As a native Korean speaker, I have successfully executed voice recording projects. I also participated in data annotation in Korean. The tasks required me to choose the best answers among several options. In addition, I created queries and prompts in Korean for AI training. [English-Korean Translation/Interpretation] I have +10 years of experience as a translator. I was an active PTO board member of a foreign school in South Korea between 2017 and 2019. There, I have bridged between parents who are not English speakers and the faculty who are native English speakers. As a treasurer, I created PTO event posters and flyers written in English and Korean. During my internship at a privately owned local museum from 2014 to 2015, I created docent scripts in both English and Korean. I also conducted museum tours in Korean and English. My interpretation level is moderate, and I believe my price is reasonable to achieve your goal. If I should physically attend a place for interpretation, the cost starts at $ 60 for up to 2 hours. [English-Korean Medical Interpreter] I have been a CMI-Korean since 2025. My medical interpretation skills have been certified by the National Board of Certification for Medical Interpreters (NBCMI). I conducted virtual interpretation for a hospital in the U.S. and in-person interpretation at hospitals and clinics in South Korea since 2023. I offer consecutive interpretation. [Virtual Assistant] I can work as a virtual assistant by helping non-Korean speakers solve their life difficulties and inconveniences in Korea. I can connect you with people, institutions, or companies in South Korea to achieve your goals. I may conduct tasks in person if the task site is located in the Seoul area. Otherwise, I can help you online or on the phone. [Market Research Participant] I am a surveyee who genuinely and explicitly expresses my opinions as a consumer. Since 2021, I have participated in survey projects for OTT, smartphone apps, and brand products. I generated oral or written reports in Korean for most of the projects. Some projects were group discussions in English. I look forward to working with you! P.S. Please exclude me from your project if it is illegal in South Korea (e.g., casino, gambling) and the U.S.
