What I'm looking for

I'm looking to provide accurate, culturally appropriate Somali, Swahili, and English interpretation in medical, legal, asylum, immigration, or community settings while upholding confidentiality, impartiality, and professional ethics.

I've delivered Somali, Swahili, and English interpretation across medical, legal, asylum, immigration, and community settings for Grupo Noa International, ContactLink Solutions, and Easy Interpreters.

At Easy Interpreters, I supported solicitor consultations, asylum interviews, Home Office appointments, tribunal hearings, and caseworker meetings. I preserve meaning, tone, and intent while helping asylum seekers, legal representatives, immigration officials, and support organizations communicate clearly.

In medical settings, I've interpreted for hospitals, GP surgeries, clinics, pharmacies, and healthcare providers through over-the-phone, video remote, and face-to-face services. I manage high-volume assignments while accurately communicating medical terminology during primary care, specialist, emergency, and follow-up appointments.

I'm committed to confidentiality, impartiality, cultural competence, and professional ethics. My training includes medical interpreting, HIPAA Privacy and Security compliance, medical terminology, and C2 English proficiency.
