Having established a strong educational foundation, I successfully completed the four-year Kenya High School program with a solid grade of B in the National Exam. Iโ€™m trilingual in English, Somali, and Swahili, which allows me to deliver accurate and culturally sensitive translations. Iโ€™m currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Public Health at Kenyatta University, where Iโ€™m building advanced knowledge in health communication, research, and community engagement. Alongside my studies, I work part-time as a freelance translator and interpreter, providing reliable language support for clients and remote customer service projects. I have developed strong translation and communication skills, and I take pride in producing clear, natural, and context-appropriate work. Iโ€™m passionate about helping clients bridge language gaps and am eager to take on new opportunities in translation, virtual office assistance and related fields.
