What I'm looking for

I'm looking for translation, localization, or content roles where I can adapt English ideas into natural, culturally resonant Swahili for Tanzanian and wider East African audiences, working remotely with clear deadlines and meaningful educational, marketing, or devotional content.

At NASK Group, I write, translate, and publish Swahili educational, motivational, and Islamic content, including full-length ebooks on relationships and men's development. I turn English psychology, wellness, and self-improvement concepts into accessible Swahili for Tanzanian readers.

I also manage bilingual customer communication for digital products, translate promotional and instructional materials for Forever Living Products, and produce daily bilingual motivational content for Success Daily 2. My BAKITA Swahili proficiency certification and teaching-focused degree support careful translation, editing, cultural adaptation, and consistent tone.
