What I'm looking for

I seek roles using my Zulu interpreting and translation expertise to improve access to legal and health services, with opportunities for language development, policy work, and collaborative, service-oriented teams.

I am an experienced Zulu interpreter and language practitioner with a National Diploma in Language Practice from Durban University of Technology and over a decade of applied experience in courts, health services, and laboratory settings. I provide accurate face-to-face and phone interpreting, translate legal and medical documents, assist with court record reconstruction, and support language development, policy implementation, and multilingual education materials.

I have a proven record of delivering confidential, culturally sensitive translations and interpreting in criminal, civil and family law contexts, as well as patient- and staff-facing health communications. I combine strong administrative, project management, proofreading and computer skills (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) with service excellence, flexibility and effective communication to support organizational language programs and improve access to information.
