About Me
My Experience
Welcome to my website. My full name is Abdallah Al Alfy but most people just call me Alfy. You can view my experiences in more detail by clicking the tabs in the site header. Like the header says, I'm a bit of a polymath! I graduated pharmacy school, but I've been fortunate enough to have a rather diverse career. I'm at home in a number of environments. You can put me in a lab or a corporate office, a lecture hall or a class room.
I'm currently based in Canada, in the Greater Toronto Area. My full time career is all about writing, producing, and editing various content genres. My content is wide-ranging but being a licensed pharmacist in multiple jurisdictions, I'm often tapped for healthcare and scientific content writing projects. Because of my experience in corporate and government communications, I also often draft grant, project, and policy proposals in the fields of healthcare, science, education, and construction. I also regularly craft blogs and landing pages designed with SEO in mind.
A good chunk of my work is geared towards b2b and software-as-a-service audiences. At past stages of my career I was a full-time translator, instructor, and pharmacist respectively. Much of my recent work involves coordinating and liaising with pharmaceutical companies, and my content writing still intersects with translation projects quite often. I still teach on some weekends, albeit rather infrequently, both as a volunteer, and as a casual instructor.
I'm currently pursuing both a Master of Science in Applied Biotech from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a Master of Liberal Arts in Creative Writing and Literature from Harvard. As of this moment I'm roughly halfway between both.
I'm the proud author of Islam Versus Muslims, and the not so proud author of another book published under a pseudonym. Islam Versus Muslims is available on Amazon, but you can also get a free digital version right here on my site! Just click on the writing/editing tab in the header and find it in the downloadable files!
Per my professional skills, I've included a non-comprehensive resume on this website. Shoot me an email and I will, upon request, send you a full, though somewhat compact CV.
