The TED story
I have been a volunteer for TEDxChiang Mai events since 2013, interpreting the talks from Thai to English and vice versa. It is a wonderful experience to sit in a box and simultaneously translate the ideas worth spreading from the Thai context for international audience and some avant-garde ideas from western speakers to Thai audience. For subtitling, I have joined TEDx translator community in Amara.org and then moved to CaptionHub since 2021.
