What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values cultural diversity and offers growth opportunities.

I am a dedicated professional with over 14 years of experience in interpretation and translation, specializing in Arabic and English. My journey has taken me through various domains, including legal, medical, and federal sectors, where I have honed my skills in delivering precise and culturally sensitive communication. I am passionate about bridging language barriers and facilitating understanding among diverse communities.

Throughout my career, I have successfully contributed to numerous projects, including my current role as an English/Arabic Medical Proficiency Test Evaluator at Linguava Interpreters Inc. My commitment to excellence has been recognized with accolades such as the Adjunct Faculty Award for Teaching Excellence. I am also certified in medical interpretation and have extensive experience in quality assurance and content creation for AI applications.

As I continue to grow professionally, I seek opportunities that allow me to leverage my linguistic expertise and training skills to make a meaningful impact. I thrive in collaborative environments where I can contribute to innovative projects and help others achieve their communication goals.
