As a translator I have worked on the books Portraits controversés d’un prince éthiopien, Baghdad Arts Deco, and Un Train Africain/የባቡር ወጎች/African Train to which I also contributed a chapter.
More recently, I translated the beautiful photobook Ménélik, Une Abyssine des photographes into English, and supervised the Amharic translation.
I also translate speeches, economic reports and websites – on subjects ranging from tourism to agriculture.
