I am a London based English/Arabic Translator & voiceover artist. With Experience in localisation and analysing data. I’m passionate about languages & arts, and the potential for technology to bridge many gaps across cultures. I enjoy taking on projects as diverse as my skill sets and working with people who reflect that diversity. Bilingual, with 9+ years experience: *TRANSLATIONS* -Liaison Interpreting. -Transcription. -Video subtitles + Timecode synchronisation. -Transcreation: Adapting material, such as humour for example, to better fit the target culture. *VOICEOVERS* -ARABIC: Najdi, Hijazi, MSA & Classical Arabic voiceovers. -ENGLISH: American/Canadian English voiceovers. *IT* -Meta data analyst. -Search engine optimisation. -Localisation & working with RTL/LTR scripting. I strive to reach the local consumer in both my vocal & written work. That is why I see Transcreation as the Ultimate tool in connecting cultures. Having been raised & educated between the Middle East & North America, combined with living in several countries across Europe, helped me develop a native understanding of different cultures & how best to get an idea across clearly & accurately.
