About me
UNTIL RECENTLY, THE BELOW TEXT DESCRIBED MY LONDON-BASED FREELANCE PROFILE. HAVING RELOCATED TO ABU DHABI AND TAKEN UP FULL-TIME EMPLOYMENT HERE, I AM UNFORTUNATELY NOT ABLE TO ACCEPT FREELANCE WORK AT PRESENT.


With ten years of experience as a freelance translator and advanced degrees in linguistics, Islamic Studies and business studies, I concentrate on commercial, business and telecommunications-related texts.

Although I work for clients all over the world, most of them tend to be located in Western Europe, Egypt, and Japan.

In addition to my work as a translator, I also conduct dedicated research projects, in particular on economic developments in the MENA region.
