What I'm looking for

I'm looking to leverage my English-to-Malay translation and subtitling experience in a challenging professional setting where I can produce precise translations and continue enhancing my language capabilities.

I've translated English content into Malay for more than 14 years, working across documents, websites, and multimedia.

I'm currently a freelance Subtitle Translator for TVT Media and have worked with ZOO Digital Group, Dicentia Studios, and Sublime Subtitling. My work includes subtitle translation and timing.

I've also delivered English-to-Malay translation for Gengo, Chambers Translation, SEAtongue, and SDI Media, including website localization.

I hold a Bachelor of Human Sciences in English Language and Literature from the International Islamic University Malaysia. I'm committed to precise, polished translations that faithfully represent source material and support cross-cultural communication.
