Bio
I'm Dina Afifi, an Egypt-based translator. I have been working in the field of translation since graduation in 1998. I have been working for Reuters News Agency since the year 2000. During this period, I have acquired an immense experience. At Reuters, the editorial team translate and edit news stories from English to Arabic in various fields including politics, economy, health, sports, science, technology and many other fields. I have also been working in translating and editing news graphics since 2000, first using CorelDraw and then using Adobe Illustrator. From 1999 to 2005 I worked for the Egyptian Intelligence Service as a translator and consecutive interpreter.
I have graduated from faculty of Alsun (language), Ain Shams University in 1998. Since that time I have been engaging in freelance work. I have worked on various types of projects (English to Arabic and Arabic to English) including books, websites, academic papers, official documents, news paper articles and personal letters.
