Translations
Translating since studying for my BA, I have, over the years, translated many texts from Hebrew to English. My focus has been scripts, plays and children's books, which often require adaptation and finding creative solutions.
The Short Story Project
The Short Story Project is a unique online magazine that publishes short stories in the language of origin and in English, making local texts accessible to international readers. As part of my work there until 2018, I translated some exceptional literary works from the Hebrew to English.
