Past

June 2009 to Feb. 2011 - Senior Fellow / Innovation Officer (Communications) at National Innovation Foundation-India(a grant-in-aid institution of Department of Science and Technology, Government of India) – Translation, proof reading, review, editing etc, related works in significant volumes, website content and other communication and information materials of the mentioned institution. My involvement with the Honey Bee Network - the umbrella network which includes organizations like National Innovation Foundation (http://www.nif.org.in/) and SRISTI, dates back to 2007. Since then, I have been regularly contributing towards translation, review, editing etc, of varied communication and information materials of the network. It includes English to Hindi translation of 15 editions of Honey Bee quarterly newsletter (http://www.sristi.org/hbnew/ publication.php).


I quit a permanent job in the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) in 2003 and ventured into the domain of translation and writing. My nine-year-long stint with the LIC was filled with intense trade union and cultural activities. Though my profile in company did not require me to indulge in linguistic and cultural activities, I managed to build my profile and knowledge in these areas alongside the requirements of my job and started working as an amateur translator.


In the period between 2003 and 2009, I worked on different translation and writing assignments for my clients, with significant volume of commercial translation. During this period, I was also active in different social, literary and cultural activities as a writer, translator and organizer.


I am a translator not by chance. I love my language and believe in quality.
