Bio

I am Muhammad Ikram, native Urdu and Punjabi translator from Pakistan. I have been a professional translator since 2007. Back in 2009 I joined HRCP (Human Rights Commission of Pakistan) as a translator and editor where I gained tremendous experience in social sciences translations especially Constitution articles, UNO charters, Government documents, reports and books.


I have been working in the localization industry for over a decade now and have worked with some of the biggest names in the industry. I offer services in the following fields;
Translation/Localization, Editing/Proofreading, Voice over/Dubbing
Subtitling, Transcreation, MTPE

linguists and onboarding new ones.
