What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values quality translation and offers growth opportunities.

I am Delilah Dafina, a dedicated Albanian to English translator with over two years of professional experience. My academic background in language studies and translation has equipped me with the skills necessary to provide accurate and culturally nuanced translations. I specialize in legal, technical, and website localization, ensuring that the content resonates with English-speaking audiences while maintaining its original intent.

Throughout my career, I have worked as a Legal Mediation Consultant, where I translated legal agreements and mediation documents, ensuring compliance with legal standards. My role as a Project Operations Specialist at the Swedish International Development Agency allowed me to bridge communication gaps between English and Albanian stakeholders, managing multilingual documentation with precision. I am committed to delivering high-quality translation services and continuously improving my skills in this dynamic field.
