I grew up in a multi-lingual household, speaking three languages. I have worked for 26 years at a European Embassy in Beirut in several positions, but one of my main duties was translating a variety of subjects including official business and communications, politics, media, laws, agreements, economics, contracts, personal documents, etc...

Twenty years ago, I also started freelancing on the side, helping out with an English/French/Arabic dictionary, copy-writing articles on tourism, accommodation and leisure, as well as brochures for several shops and companies mainly in English and French.

And in 2009, I got to be the managing and executive director of an NGO dealing with prisoners. I had to prepare reports, in three languages, about human rights, laws, projects, etc... and I acquired as well an experience in dealing with court matters, judgments, laws' translation.

I have been working as a full-time freelance translator since February 2016. During that time, I used my experience and acquired additional experience in tenders, marketing, information technology, fashion, cosmetics, watches, as well as subtitling.

I am generally quick, even though I am a perfectionist, and I like to deliver a perfect translation each time. I have a comfortable daily output of 5000 words, which can be upped when necessary.

The best praise I receive is when satisfied clients comes back for another translation, and sometimes in another pair!
