Associate Professor of Translation and Interpreting Studies at the English Department, Faculty of Al-Alsun, Ain Shams University. With over 22 years of experience as a freelance translator, she brings both academic rigor and practical expertise to her field. Her research, focusing on cognitive and corpus-based approaches to translation, has earned her both an MA and PhD in the field. Her dedication extends beyond her own work; she actively shapes the next generation of translators and interpreters as an editor for Textual Turning journal, an annual, academic, peer-reviewed journal, and a mentor to numerous MA and PhD students. Her influence is evident in her high-profile translation projects, including Kwame Appiah's The Honor Code: How Moral Revolutions Happen into Arabic published by Hindawy and her recent translation into English, The Journey of the Holy Family in Egypt: A Journey of Blessings, published by the National Center for Translation. Her leadership positions, such as heading the Faculty of Al-Alsun's Innovation Hub (iHub), further underscore her commitment to advancing the field. She remains at the forefront of technological innovation, holding a certificate in data analytics and programming, with a keen interest in how Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning can enhance translation practices.
