This coupled up with the fact that I spent a significant amount of my childhood in East African countries namely Kenya, Tanzania and Ethiopia have also been of great advantage to my fluency and effective communication.
Currently I am a certified Medical interpreter from English to Swahili and Somali and have a demonstrable experience from the last five years since becoming a freelancer. In addition to this I have had the capacity to work with a company as a translator to various clients in reference to the languages of Somali and Swahili. Furthermore I have a boosted experience of professional translation in medical and business fields summing up to two years. My educational background entails a Diploma in procurement, and I believe this is of advantage in my interpretation of information which entails business and accounting details. I would appreciate an opportunity to discuss my qualifications and expertise in more detail when requested.
