am a translator (Arabic, English, and French), and a university instructor teaching English and Translation courses (e.g., Translation Theories, Literary Translation, Legal Translation, Economic and Political Translation, Audiovisual Translation, etc.). I am a native Arabic speaker, and I am fluent in both French and English. I have a Master of Arts in Arts in Translation (thesis French to Arabic, graduated with honors), and over twenty years of experience. I have worked as a Translation Officer for intergovernmental organisations, such as the United Nations Special Tribunal for Lebanon, which provided me with a wealth of knowledge and terminology to produce accurate and timely translations under high pressure circumstances. My communication, multitasking, and organizing skills have consistently allowed me to contribute to a constructive group environment, whereby I have led teams, and complemented them under others’ supervision. In addition, I have also carried out many independent translation projects in various domains, including for instance, academic, legal, nonprofit, and entertainment-related translations (e.g., research reports, magazine articles, short stories, etc.). Being well-versed in the field of translation and being resilient to stress, I have the full ability to work autonomously when appropriate. |
