What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values communication and offers opportunities for growth in healthcare or remote interpretation.

As a fluent bilingual speaker of English and Swahili, I possess strong communication skills that have been honed through my professional experiences in caregiving and healthcare. My calm demeanor and respectful approach allow me to adapt seamlessly to various settings, including customer service and healthcare environments.

During my clinical attachment as a Nursing Assistant with the Ministry of Health in Kenya, I interacted with patients, documented medical information, and maintained professionalism in high-stress situations. Additionally, my freelance work as a Virtual Assistant has equipped me with skills in customer support and content translation, further enhancing my ability to communicate effectively across diverse audiences.
