What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to utilize my language skills in a dynamic environment, fostering growth and collaboration.

I am a dedicated and passionate writer and translator currently pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in German Language and Translation at Ain Shams University. My academic journey has equipped me with a strong foundation in advanced translation, linguistics, and intercultural communication. I have honed my skills through various projects, including my graduation research project on literary translation, where I applied translation theories to analyze complex texts.

In addition to my academic pursuits, I have gained practical experience as a writer and translator for web novels, where I translated works from Arabic to English. My internship at Sky Center Travel Agency further enhanced my communication skills, allowing me to assist in multilingual client interactions and operate Opera PMS for bookings. I am fluent in Arabic, German, and English, which enables me to navigate diverse linguistic landscapes effectively.
