What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply PEMT and localization QA skills in collaborative teams, improve terminology workflows, and deliver accurate legal/medical translations with clear client communication.

I am a detail-oriented multilingual translator and localization QA tester with hands-on experience resolving RTL layout issues and improving machine translation output. I focus on legal, medical, financial, and technical content and prioritize clarity and accuracy in every project.

My work includes building terminology checklists and approved abbreviation lists, producing post-edited MT (PEMT) for legal contracts, and translating patient medical reports and financial statements. I proactively collaborate with clients to clarify context and streamline delivery.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Linguistics and Translation from the University of Asmara and have completed targeted courses in PEMT, medical translation, legal translation, technical translation, and proofreading. I am proficient with CAT tools including SDL Trados, MemoQ, and Wordfast.

I am committed to delivering high-quality, culturally appropriate translations and to improving localization workflows through strong terminology management, client communication, and attention to detail.
