What I'm looking for

I'm looking for translation or interpretation work where I can support clear English-Somali communication, handle sensitive information responsibly, and deliver accurate localized documents and live interpretation.

I've translated more than 60 business contracts, financial summaries, and general documents between English and Somali as a freelance translator and interpreter. I also provide simultaneous and consecutive interpretation for community meetings and business consultations.

As a volunteer Liaison & Translation Assistant with a Community Development Initiative, I helped reduce communication barriers by 40% between coordinators and Somali-speaking community members. I bring careful proofreading, transcription, cultural localization, and confidentiality to every assignment.
