Most of my 12 years experience has been in public relations, managing correspondence, administrative supported and trilingual translation. As an Iraqi/Italian woman, I have a very good command of Arabic, Italian and English. Most of my education (high school and university) has been in Arabic and English. Having an Italian Mother, made the Italian language easy to achieve, and to consolidate it I also studied it at the Italian Language institute and obtained the TELC certificate as I now have full command of Italian as well.
I had completed my high school and university education in Baghdad as I hold a B.Sc. Degree in Biology. However, I moved to the UAE, Abu Dhabi where I lived from 1996 through 2001. I worked for two years in academic institutions and three at the Italian Embassy)defence attache's Office).
I moved to Italy in 2001 where I now have permanent residence. I have worked primarily in two diplomatic missions (UAE and currently at the Iraqi embassy).
In addition to my extensive experience in working with government institutions and diplomatic missions, I also did free lance translation consultancies with the Italian Ministry of Defence in Rome during the missions of visiting high ranking officials from the Saudi and Libyan governments during their official meetings.
Hope I can find means of profesional cooperation with you.
