About Sarah
Zini Translation is an Oakville-based certified translation practice serving clients across Ontario and Canada. Every translation is prepared and certified by Sarah Zini, a member of the Association of Translators and Interpreters of Ontario (ATIO), certified in Arabic-to-English translation.
Before founding Zini Translation, she spent 10 years as a caseworker and interpreter with UNHCR (the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, also known as the UN Refugee Agency) in Lebanon, helping families through some of the most important conversations of their lives.
Sarah holds ATIO certificate No. 3494 for Arabic → English translation. She is also a certified sworn translator before the Lebanese courts for Arabic, English and French, and holds a master's degree in translation (Arabic, French and English) from Université Saint-Joseph (USJ) in Beirut.
That experience shapes how she works: careful with every name and date, familiar with civil records from across the Arab world, and respectful of the trust you place in her.
