What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values communication and cultural understanding, offering growth opportunities.

As a dedicated German translator with a Bachelor's Degree in Linguistics and Translation, I have honed my skills in both language and cultural nuances. My academic journey at Badr University, where I achieved a GPA of 3.55, laid a strong foundation for my professional endeavors. I have successfully translated various literary works, including short stories and poems by renowned authors such as Heinrich Heine and Friedrich Nietzsche, showcasing my ability to convey complex ideas across languages.

In addition to my translation work, I have gained valuable experience in the tourism sector as a Guest Relation Officer at Fort Arabesque Resort. My role involved active communication with guests, handling complaints, and ensuring a high level of customer satisfaction. This experience has enhanced my interpersonal skills and ability to work effectively in a team-oriented environment. I am passionate about bridging cultural gaps through language and look forward to leveraging my skills in a dynamic and challenging role.
