Bio

Technical Translator with Field Experience in Automation & Logistics

I am a veteran linguist with a unique dual background in Electronic Physics and English Literature. Unlike typical translators, I possess 2 years of industrial field experience at Honeywell, where I managed Integrated Supply Chains (ISC) and gained hands-on knowledge of factory automation, logistics, and chemical gas detection technologies.

For the past 9+ years, I have leveraged this field expertise to deliver precise technical translations for global leaders like AMD, Lam Research, and OMICRON. My academic background in Literature also enables me to handle creative marketing copy and subtitling with nuance and flow.

1. Industrial & Technical Expertise:

  • Factory Automation & Logistics: In-depth understanding of supply chain terms, sensors, and manufacturing processes (based on Honeywell tenure).

  • Semiconductors & IT: Specialized in wafer fabrication manuals, CPU/GPU architecture, and hardware user guides.

2. Media & Audiovisual Translation:

  • Subtitling: Proficient in SubtitleEdit; experienced in timing and translating visual media content with cultural context.

  • Transcreation: Adapting marketing messages to be culturally relevant for the Korean market, backed by a B.A. in English Literature.

CAT Tools & Software:
SDL Trados Studio, MemoQ, Phrase, XTM, SubtitleEdit.
