@alaabed

I translate research and coordinate cultural initiatives across language, politics, and society.

What I'm looking for

I'm looking for opportunities in academic research, policy analysis, and translation for research projects, as well as collaborations that foster intercultural understanding, critical inquiry, and social impact.

I translate and edit academic papers, research studies, policy reports, creative works, and short films between Arabic and English, bringing a transnational perspective shaped across the West Asia and the United States.

I've coordinated communications, projects, and events for Dar Yusuf Nasri Jacir for Art and Research, A. M. Qattan Foundation, and Global Hope 365, collaborating with artists, researchers, educators, and communities. I'm currently pursuing a Master’s in Global Affairs, with research interests in gender politics, nationalism, migration, and cultural policy.
