What I'm looking for

I’m open to remote work and interested in long-term language service partnerships involving medical interpretation, translation, and patient-centered health communication.

At Inttraduk, CST, and Priopio, I provide real-time medical, social, and legal interpretation in English, Tigrinya, and Amharic. I support virtual consultations by helping providers and patients communicate accurately, confidentially, and with cultural sensitivity.

At PSI/Ethiopia, I conducted outreach for HIV, PrEP, and SRH programs and supported virtual enrollment into HIVST and PrEP initiatives. I also maintained confidential client records using CRM-like platforms.

At TRHB, I set up and managed an IDP health center serving 5,000+ displaced individuals. Across my public health work, I’ve supported patient follow-up, care coordination, and health communication in clinical and humanitarian contexts.
