Bio

I have worked as a translator and supervisor for
the translator’s department with BBC-Persian for 5 years. I have also worked as an English editor for the education projects of AEPO in Afghanistan. During my work as a supervisor for the translators, I used to review and proofread the work of three translators and coordinated more than 30
pages of translation in two languages per day.

I have an MBA with a
concentration in social entrepreneurship from Colorado State University, and
work experience in translation, project management, and business development for more than five years. In
addition, I have volunteered as an interpreter for the IRC Sacramento where I interpreted in the trainings, phone calls and one on one sessions.
