What I'm looking for

I seek remote or onsite interpreting roles in healthcare where I can apply medical knowledge, cultural competence, and flexible scheduling to improve patient outcomes.

I am an experienced Somali-English interpreter with over six years providing accurate, culturally sensitive interpretation in healthcare, legal, and community settings. I blend language expertise with strong confidentiality and communication skills to support patients and providers effectively.

My interpreting experience spans over-the-phone, video remote, and in-person assignments where I consistently adapted style to the setting and ensured clarity and cultural accuracy. I have a reliable home office setup and the technical readiness to deliver remote interpreting services.

Currently, I am pursuing a nursing degree at Chamberlain University of Illinois to deepen my clinical knowledge and better support medical interpretation. My caregiving and scheduling experience has strengthened my organizational, advocacy, and medical-terminology familiarity.

I also bring customer-service and multicultural communication skills from my current role at Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport, and I remain flexible with scheduling, including nights, weekends, and holidays.
