What I'm looking for

I seek translation and language verification work that values accuracy, cultural nuance, collaborative client communication, and opportunities to handle medical, legal, and technical content.

I am a dedicated freelance linguist with experience translating legal, medical, financial and life-science documents between English, Amharic and Afar. I have worked with local clients, regional health bureaus, and organizations to deliver accurate translations and language verification tests.

I hold a BA in Afar Language from Samara University and focus on terminology research, editing and quality assurance, and clear client communication to ensure culturally competent, timely deliverables.
