What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to utilize my language skills in a collaborative environment, focusing on impactful projects that require precision and creativity.

I am a dedicated freelance English<>Arabic translator, editor, and proofreader with over five years of experience in the field. My work includes translating educational materials, marketing content, and literary texts, ensuring that the original meaning and tone are preserved in every project. I have successfully translated the book 'Agricultural Practices in the UAE: Heritage and Science,' which was presented at COP28 in Dubai, showcasing my ability to handle significant projects with professionalism and precision.

In addition to translation, I excel in proofreading and editing, with the capability to review over 3000 translated texts per day. My attention to detail ensures that grammar, punctuation, and formatting are flawless. I also have experience in subtitling, where I convert audio and video content into accurate subtitles while adhering to industry standards. My goal is to deliver high-quality translations that meet the specific needs of my clients.
