@nooralquraishi
English–Arabic translation specialist delivering culturally accurate localization and SDH subtitles.
What I'm looking for
I’m an accomplished English–Arabic translator with over 9 years of proven expertise in translation, localization, subtitling, and proofreading across academia, humanitarian sectors, digital content, and video games. I’m recognized for delivering linguistically accurate, culturally adapted content with a strong focus on clarity and impact.
I manage full project cycles independently and keep quality high through streamlined workflows and QA, improving delivery time by 15% and reducing errors by 20%. I specialize in humanitarian and NGO content, patent and medical translation, and SDH-compliant subtitles (using Aegisub), while maintaining terminology consistency with CAT tools such as Trados and MemoQ. I also translate peer-reviewed sports science research published in Scopus-indexed journals and continue supporting new publication work in neuromuscular and biomechanics-based training and rehab protocols.
