In the field of interpreting, you truly get what you pay for. Interpreters who compete on price usually tend to be relatively new to the field. They are trying to find a market for themselves. No doubt, some are well qualified. However, when it comes...
There is no official award reserved for "the Best Korean English Interprerter." Perhaps, I am puffing a bit when I say I am the Best. However, this is my web-site. If I were to be bashful here, who would speak up for me? At the pain of sounding vain,...
It was not really by a choice. In 1996, I found myself without a job and near zero balance in my bank account. Not a good combination. With an MBA degree I was getting good at leaching off of my parents. I told them that I would one day find a great ...
