What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities to apply my linguistic skills in innovative projects, particularly in Conversational AI and Data Annotation, where I can deliver culturally relevant translations.

I am a dedicated and highly skilled translation specialist with over five years of professional experience. My journey began with a BSc in Mass Communication from Jomo Kenyatta University, where I developed a strong foundation in communication and language. Since then, I have worked as a freelance translator, providing high-quality translation services for various clients in legal, medical, technical, and marketing fields. I have successfully translated over 500,000 words from English to Swahili and French, ensuring linguistic accuracy and cultural relevance in every project.

In my role as a professional translator, I have utilized advanced CAT tools such as SDL Trados and MemoQ to enhance translation efficiency and consistency. I have collaborated with teams of translators and editors to translate and localize content for major international organizations. My commitment to maintaining a glossary of terms has ensured consistency across all translated materials, allowing me to meet and exceed client expectations consistently.
