Technical Writer and Editor | Materials Science & Chemical Engineering
I'm a materials engineer and professional science writer and editor with over nine years of experience. I help researchers, educators, and professionals communicate complex technical and scientific ideas with clarity and precision — whether that means editing a journal article, writing technical content from scratch, or developing course materials for engineering and science disciplines. My background includes a Ph.D. in Materials Science (in progress), an MSc in Environmental Studies, and a BSc in Chemical Engineering. I've worked as a senior design engineer and engineering instructor in Egypt, and as a quality control section head in an Italian dye house. I now work with top international agencies and clients across academic and technical fields. Here's what I can help you with: -Engineering design: I provide design support and technical input for materials and chemical engineering projects, especially in the water treatment, desalination, and energy sectors. -Journal editing: I'll review your manuscript for clarity, flow, and technical accuracy, and ensure it's ready for submission. -Science writing: I produce well-researched technical content for engineering and materials science audiences, including reports, white papers, and literature reviews. -Course development: I create and edit technical and academic content for university-level engineering and science courses. -Research assistance: I can help you gather, organize, and summarize technical research or background information for reports, presentations, or study materials. Other key skills: • Fluent in Arabic and English • Good level of Italian and French • Strong understanding of academic and industry standards • Able to work independently or as part of a team • Responsive, reliable, and easy to work with
