What I'm looking for

I seek interpreting roles where I can use Arabic and Kurdish to support clients in healthcare or community settings, value cultural sensitivity, remote work options, and opportunities to train or mentor others.

I am a bilingual interpreter with over 10 years of experience conveying the content, tone, and cultural nuance of Arabic and Kurdish speakers into English. I specialize in consecutive interpretation, remote video/phone interpreting, and document translation, consistently delivering accurate, confidential, and culturally sensitive communication in healthcare and community settings.

I have a proven track record working with nonprofit and clinical partners, facilitating real-time oral interpretation and written translation while preserving style and emotional intent. I bring strong active listening, interpersonal communication, and training experience to roles that require fast, reliable language services and cultural mediation.
