Bio

I am a native English speaker with 21 years of American education including two college degrees. I also have 31 years of exposure to and study of Arabic, with a long-term bilingual marriage and more than five years residence in Egypt, starting in 1998, in addition to regular long visits.

After living in Egypt I became very interested in the culture and in transmitting the thoughts and writings there into English as a form of cultural exchange. Pursuing this idea as a career seemed like a good match for my circumstances, and so I have been working at it since about 2012.

Please see my attached resume for further details.
