What I'm looking for

I seek roles using my translation, interpreting, and communications skills to produce culturally accurate content, grow engagement, and support community-focused projects.

I am a translator, interpreter, and communications professional with eight years of experience producing culturally sensitive content and delivering clear, accurate interpretation across Kinyarwanda, English, and French.

In communications roles I built media databases, raised social engagement, and crafted Kinyarwanda messaging that improved community understanding of project activities and outcomes.

As a translator and editor I delivered polished bilingual documents for development reports, news stories, and public-education materials, achieving high client satisfaction through linguistic accuracy and cultural relevance.

I combine journalism experience, strong presentation skills, and training in localization and AI-informed tools to simplify complex ideas into accessible narratives that resonate with diverse audiences.
