What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that encourages innovation and personal growth.

I am a dedicated translator with a Bachelor of Arts in Translation Studies from St Paul's University, Kenya. My journey in translation has been enriched by my experience as a Computer Translation Intern at Translators Without Borders, where I honed my skills in content management and collaboration. I thrive in dynamic environments that challenge my adaptability and critical thinking.

In addition to my translation expertise, I am also the youngest hockey coach of 2024, showcasing my leadership and teamwork abilities. My diverse skill set includes proficiency in CAT tools, MS Office, and a strong command of multiple languages, including Kiswahili, English, French, Kikuyu, German, and Spanish. I am passionate about continuous learning and personal growth, and I am eager to contribute to an organization that values innovation.
