About me
I received my MA B.Ed in Pakistan, and obtained an English language diploma from Cambridge College of Learning, in the UK. I have studied, worked and lived in UK for more than 4 years. While living there, I observed closely the practical use of the English language and developed genuine translation skills into my own language. I also came across the different accents of English language in multicultural London, while at study, work and in day-to-day living. In addition, In the UK, I also had the opportunity to teach Urdu language to the English speaking community, both on a one to one basis and in online forums. All of which helped me to develop a broader based comprehension of both the languages, and a true ability to thoroughly translate purely.

Translation projects:

I've successfully worked with many clients around the globe including UK, Italy, USA, Canada, Australia, India and many others. My clients have always remained happy with the level of responsibility I take in handling their projects, in regards to translation quality and timely delivery.
