What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply multilingual interpretation and refugee case management skills in humanitarian or social services, with opportunities for remote work and cross-cultural impact.

I am a multilingual interpreter and humanitarian case worker with hands-on experience in refugee resettlement, field missions, and remote interpretation across health, legal, and social services. I bring reliable, confidential case management and accurate Somali and Swahili interpretation under pressure.

My experience includes processing resettlement cases with RSC Africa, supporting field missions in Somalia, and providing over-the-phone and video interpretation remotely for LingoAid. I consistently coordinate with protection staff, UNHCR, and interpreters to ensure timely, accurate outcomes while maintaining strict confidentiality.

Academically, I hold a Bachelor of Science focused on chemical process design and laboratory analysis from the Technical University of Kenya, and I have managed e-commerce operations with attention to data entry, documentation, and client relations. I am committed to culturally informed communication and effective cross-cultural problem solving.
