Bio

I am a polyglot and have been learning languages since the age of 6. I engage on a daily basis and translate professionally at native level from English (UK) into Farsi (Iran Persian), Dari (Afghanistan Persian), Pashto (Afghanistan), Kurdish (Iraq Kurmanji), Tajik (Tajikistan Persian), and Arabic (Iraq). I do this in both 'into' and 'from' directions.

I proofread and edit my work before delivery to ensure the highest quality is achieved for the end-user. Otherwise and thanks to my academic background in life sciences (Chemistry BSc Hons. & studying towards MSc), my preferred area of expertise are pharmaceuticals, healthcare and medical.

I love languages and in my free time I study Indo-European etymology (mainly Avestan and Sanskrit).

I can also speak French, Russian and Armenian at an intermediate level.
