For international localization vendors, I deliver Arabic dubbing quality control, translation and proofreading, and author dubbing scripts using DDT/DTT workflows. I became Netflix DTT Authoring certified in 2025.

At Human Dimensions Company, Thomas International MENA Distributor / S.O.S HR Solutions, I led the translation and localization of Thomas assessment products for the MENA market. I assessed more than 7,000 candidates with Thomas tools and trained HR teams to use and interpret results.

At the Ministry of Defense of the State of Kuwait – General Dynamics Land Systems Project, I managed a 40-person translation and interpretation department and translated technical manuals for the M1A2K tank project. My work also includes political and current-affairs reporting for an Ambassador and translating Memoirs of John Philby, published by Torous Center, Kuwait.
