What I'm looking for

I'm looking for translation, interpretation, research, or community-facing work where I can support clear cross-cultural communication, accurate data collection, confidentiality, and meaningful engagement with diverse participants.

I provide English–Luganda translation and interpretation for the Canadian High Commission’s Immigration Section in Nairobi, preserving meaning, tone, context, neutrality, and confidentiality in sensitive communications.

I also supported APHRC’s biobanking project through participant recruitment, informed consent, qualitative interviews, health-facility engagement, and SurveyCTO field data collection.

My background in hospitality, healthcare administration, and client services helps me communicate clearly across diverse cultural settings while maintaining accuracy, discretion, and rapport.
