Experienced interpreter and translator specializing in refugee support.

What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to support vulnerable communities through language services and advocacy.

I am an accomplished interpreter, translator, and cultural mediator with extensive experience working with NGOs to support asylum seekers and refugees. My journey began in Chios, Greece, where I provided vital interpreting services for legal consultations and medical appointments, ensuring clear communication between clients and professionals. My work has involved translating complex legal documents and human rights reports, which has honed my skills in both Arabic and English.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a strong commitment to advocating for vulnerable populations. My role at Choose Humanity allowed me to work closely with legal teams, providing research assistance and cultural insights that enhanced the support offered to clients. I have also collaborated with Médecins Sans Frontières, where I facilitated communication in healthcare settings, ensuring that cultural nuances were respected and understood. My dedication to this field is reflected in my ability to quickly identify the needs of clients and connect them with appropriate resources.
