Freelance interpreter and translator delivering accurate medical, legal, and business communication with cross-cultural expertise.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Rohingya freelance interpreter and translator with over four years of experience providing OPI and VRI interpretation services in medical, legal, social, and business settings. I’m committed to maintaining confidentiality, professionalism, and ethical interpreting standards while delivering high-quality language support in both remote and on-site environments.
My work centers on accurate, culturally appropriate communication that supports better outcomes for patients and clients. I provide reliable medical interpretation between healthcare providers and patients, and I also support clear information transfer across legal and business interactions while maintaining linguistic and cultural competency.
I bring specialized training and awareness around safeguarding, trauma-informed interpreting, and HIPAA compliance, along with hands-on familiarity with interpretation workflows and translation platforms such as Memsource and Smartcat. I aim to help service providers and clients communicate effectively—so the message is understood, not just translated.
