Dear Workshift users, I’m “mcooke” from the UK. I consider myself to be professional, straight-forward and user friendly; Workshift provides new opportunities for my broadcasting, journalistic and writing skills to be promoted to, and appreciated by, a wide variety of new clients. My first experience of Japan was at the age 18 as a young fashion model. That experience allowed me to sample the culture, kindness and hospitality of this part of the world, and now I am lucky to be able to reacquaint myself once again. I work for several British TV Channels and I am one of the presenters on some TV programs. I also work as a producer and development exec and write articles and novels for online and offline publishing.

Hello! I’m “Kimdo” a native English speaker with 10+ years of international writing and marketing experience. I previously spent 4 years in Kyoto, Japan, as an English instructor. There I started my own personal webpage about the beautiful Japanese culture and living abroad. To date, my writing jobs have run the entire gamut--from digital content creation for travel to technical writing on policy. I’m currently working in Berlin, Germany, as an Editor and Content Manager. My experience is in online and email marketing, so I employ marketing strategies to creating relevant, intuitive content to optimize traffic and sales. I also freelance as an editor and proofreader, and have completed large scale projects in education, and scientific and academic publication. Workshift is a great way for me to gain more high-quality clients and to share my skills in the process. It’s also a wonderful way for me to keep a professional network in Japan.

Hello, my name is Jihan Kim, my username is "jkim". I'm a full-time freelance translator in Korea. I was born and raised in Korea until I was 12, then moved to the US and lived in California until I graduated from Pepperdine University in California. I now reside in Korea after earning my degree in Psychology, therefore I can assure you that I have an in-depth context understanding of both cultures. In the past, I have translated a variety of contents from professional research reports to personal business letters. With a variety of experience, I can provide more natural, context suitable, and culturally fit translation. I hope to have a chance to work with you and hope to hear from you as well. Workshift is a great platform for freelancers worldwide. Even though the platform runs mainly Japanese, the translation tool and the services allow smooth communication. The clients are always respectful and delightful to work with. I would highly recommend Workshift to any freelancers out there. Thank you.
