My name is Abedi. I speak four languages: French, English, Swahili, and my native Bembe.
I help businesses and researchers who work in Central and East Africa. If your projects need a clear voice in these languages, I am your expert.
My niche is simple: I bridge the language gap for the Bembe-speaking community and beyond. I don't just translate words. I make sure the true meaning and culture come through.
I specialize in:
Transcription: Turning your audio and video recordings (like interviews, meetings, or podcasts) into clear, written text in any of my languages.
Translation: Accurately translating documents, reports, and community messages between French, English, Swahili, and Bembe.
Many translators know French and Swahili. But I bring the key local language: Bembe. This means your message will be understood correctly by people in my region.
I am reliable, precise, and I respect your deadlines. Let's work together to make your project a success.

Hi, I’m glad you are here.
I am Brian, an expert Kiswahili teacher, tutor, lyrics translator, subtitler, English-to-Swahili translator, Swahili researcher, and WordPress developer. I began my journey as a Swahili teacher at a local school in Nairobi, Kenya, which helped me cultivate my passion for linguistics. From there, I evolved into a local language expert and researcher.
One aspect that defines my expertise in Swahili is my deep understanding of my local East African people, our dialects, and the subtle differences that highlight our uniqueness to the world. Having travelled and lived across the East African region, including Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania, I take pride in understanding the cultural nuances of these Swahili-speaking nations.
Also a Senior WordPress developer with 5+ years of experience and $20k+ earned on Upwork.
I take pride in helping businesses build, solve issues, migrate and maintain WordPress websites, online stores and build custom plugins. My strength lies in looking at existing WordPress projects: fixing old code, fixing bugs, improving their architecture, integrating APIs and making the site easier to manage.
I focus on integrating modern design principles and UX/UI best practices into simple yet elegant solutions that leave a positive and lasting impact on your users.
Here are some of my areas of expertise in WordPress:
Custom Plugin Development
Whether it’s a bespoke admin panel, a custom dashboard for user interactions, or unique site functionality, I’ll bring your ideas to life with tailored plugins that enhance your website’s capabilities.
Custom Theme Development
From scratch or based on an existing design, I’ll craft themes optimised for performance, aesthetic appeal, and usability, while ensuring responsive design and SEO-readiness.
API Integration
- Calendars and Scheduling Systems
- Automated Email Updates
- Payment Gateways (Stripe, PayPal)
- Google Maps Integration
- Social Media APIs (Instagram, Twitter, Facebook)
- Custom REST API Connections
Custom Code and Styling
I will extend WordPress’s built-in styling with custom CSS, SCSS, and JavaScript, achieving unique designs and advanced functionality beyond the default WordPress themes.
Headless CMS
I will decouple your site’s front-end and back-end, using WordPress as a headless CMS integrated with frameworks like React or Vue.js for high performance and flexibility.
Site Localisation and Translation
I will set up your site in multiple languages using tools like WPML or Polylang, ensuring global accessibility and proper RTL (Right-to-Left) support.
Modern Front-End Integration
I will redesign your site using modern front-end technologies such as React, Tailwind CSS, and Bootstrap for clean, fast, and interactive user interfaces.
Hosting, Scaling, and Optimisation
Hosting on platforms like WP Engine, Kinsta, or Cloudways
Optimising for high-traffic handling and scalability
Performance enhancements through lazy loading, image optimisation, and CDN integration
Security Enhancements
- I implement robust security measures like:
- SSL setup
- Protection against malware and brute force attacks
- Secure file permissions and database configurations
Block Development
I utilise React, JSX, and the WordPress Block API to create custom Gutenberg blocks tailored to your website’s needs.
Multisite Development
I build and manage WordPress multisite networks for organisations, franchises, or multi-brand setups, ensuring centralised control with localised customisations.
Database Maintenance
I will optimise and maintain your WordPress database to ensure fast query times, proper caching, and reduced overhead.
Testing and Debugging
Through debugging with tools like Query Monitor, Debug Bar, and browser developer tools, I will ensure flawless functionality and bug-free performance.
E-commerce Development
I will set up a scalable WooCommerce store with:
- Custom product pages and checkout flows
- Integration of payment methods (Stripe, PayPal, etc.)
- Shipping and tax configurations
- Inventory management systems
Let’s have a chat and get your website up and running with the functionality and simplicity you need.
Peace.

English-to-Swahili Translators
When working with individuals, businesses, or organizations whose culture differs from your own, it’s essential to ensure nothing is lost in translation. This may prove difficult if you and the individual(s) with whom you’re working don’t share a common language. A qualified language translator, such as the English-to-Swahili translators on Upwork, can help you ensure your cross-cultural communications go smoothly. Swahili, also known as Kiswahili, is the first language of the Swahili people and the langua franca of several African nations, particularly in southeast Africa and the African Great Lakes region. Some of these nations include Kenya, Uganda, Burundi, Mozambique, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Tanzania. The skilled Swahili-English translators you’ll find on Upwork are familiar with the unique challenges you may face in conducting business in this particular region of Africa. They are experienced linguists with a high degree of competency in cultural exchanges, and will be able to ensure your message is conveyed clearly and received accurately by your target audience, whether this is a political leader or a prospective new customer. Language translation specialists can translate documents, such as financial, legal, or medical records, as well as works of creative writing, news reports, or letters. They can also assist with localization, making products or services — including video games, marketing materials, or apps — more accessible and appealing to Swahili speakers. In addition, a translator can offer live services, acting as a go-between during phone or video calls.
On Upwork, you can browse the profiles of hundreds of talented English-to-Swahili translation professionals in order to select the individual whose expertise, schedule, and skill set best suits your project needs.
