About

Who Am I?

Hiya there! I'm Seif.

I'm an Experienced English-Arabic translator, LQA tester, and proofreader specialized in video game localization and media subtitling.

I'm extremely detail oriented, passionate about creating immersive experiences for Arabic-speaking audiences, and always committed to excellence.

Throughout my career, I participated in localizing games ranging from massive AAA franchises to Indie darlings, which means I'm very comfortable working on almost any genre & game scale at this point.

Besides my freelance work, I participated in founding two small scale game localization teams, Eternal Dream Arabization (as the co-founder & Localization Director) and loclait (as the acting Director).

As a result, I had to wear many hats and juggle multiple roles constantly. This gave me valuable insight into what goes into the localization process, and this bird's eye view helped me deeply understand the obstacles faced by linguists, LSPs, and clients alike.

My unique perspective on the gameloc process led me to develop a knack for identifying and resolving the complexities of the craft, and my experiences continue to bolster the quality of my work, my efficiency and my problem solving skills, regardless of the roles I step into.
