Bio
I am an experienced Korean-English translator, certified by the Korean Society of Translators. I specialize in legal and patent translation, especially the translation of Korean patents in the chemical and pharmaceutical sectors. I lived in South Korea for 7 years, and have translated at the professional level since 2006. I am a US patent agent and recently graduated with honors from Valparaiso University Law School. I take deadlines seriously and keep all client information in strict confidence.

Outside of professional life, my interests include programming, cross-country unicycling, and promoting my alma mater Shimer College, a Great Books school with the oldest early entrance program in America.
