About

Currently, at Khalifa University, I translate and adapt press releases, research news, and digital content between Arabic and English, helping bridge the gap between complex scientific work and public communication. My role extends to content creation for videos, campaigns, and social media, where I ensure clarity, precision, and alignment with institutional tone.

My background also includes teaching, podcasting, and freelance translation in collaboration with organizations such as Tarjama, Amazon Alexa, and the Korean Pavilion at Expo 2020. Earlier, during my time at the United Arab Emirates University, I served as Vice President and Translator of the Arirang (Korean) Club, leading cultural collaborations and translation projects that strengthened cross-cultural understanding.

Fluent in Arabic, English, and Korean, and experienced in both academic and creative writing, I bring a unique combination of linguistic precision, storytelling skill, and intercultural insight. Whether working independently or as part of a team, I am dedicated to producing work that is not only accurate but also meaningful and resonant.
