Navajo Tradiktè yo nan Maine

Growing up in Window Rock, I was immersed in Navajo language and culture from birth, and after completing my studies at Northern Arizona University, I pursued professional translation as my calling.

My specialization is healthcare translation, where I work as a Navajo translator across mental health, oncology, pediatrics, and emergency medicine settings. As a HIPAA-compliant medical translator, I facilitate critical communication for Navajo-speaking patients navigating the U.S. healthcare system.

I am an ATA-certified Navajo translator and active member of the American Translators Association, committed to the highest ethical and professional standards in every translation assignment.

After emigrating from the Navajo Nation over 7 years ago, I dedicated myself to becoming a certified Navajo translator, helping others navigate the same linguistic challenges I once faced.

I specialize in IT, software, and localization projects, providing Navajo translation services for UI strings, help documentation, marketing copy, and mobile applications. My localization work ensures products feel native to Navajo-speaking users worldwide.

Technology-proficient and detail-oriented, I utilize industry-standard CAT tools, terminology databases, and quality assurance processes to deliver consistent, professional Navajo translation.

Language has always been central to my identity — born in Window Rock, the Navajo Nation, I spoke Navajo before I could write, and today I channel that foundation into my work as a translator.

I deliver certified Navajo translation services for the legal discovery and e-discovery process, handling large volumes of foreign-language documents, email correspondence, and digital evidence for litigation support. My professional Navajo translation services combine speed with courtroom-ready accuracy.

I offer same-day and emergency Navajo translation services, because I understand that language needs do not always follow a 9-to-5 schedule — my clients have my commitment around the clock.

For 19 years I have served as a Navajo translator, drawing on the deep cultural and linguistic knowledge I acquired growing up in Tuba City, the Navajo Nation.

My practice centers on immigration and asylum translation, where I serve as a certified Navajo translator for USCIS interviews, credible fear screenings, and immigration court proceedings. I understand the stakes involved and bring both precision and empathy to every Navajo to English assignment.

As a member of the National Association of Judiciary Interpreters and Translators (NAJIT), I adhere to a strict code of ethics and deliver certified Navajo translation of the highest caliber.

My bilingual upbringing in Shiprock gave me native fluency in Navajo, and my subsequent training in the U.S. equipped me to work as a professional translator across multiple specialized fields.

I offer professional Navajo translation services in the manufacturing and supply chain sector, covering quality control documentation, ISO certifications, safety protocols, and vendor contracts. My technical fluency in both Navajo and English ensures nothing is lost in translation.

I carry professional liability insurance, maintain strict confidentiality protocols, and treat every Navajo translation assignment — large or small — with the same level of professionalism.

Studying at Northern Arizona University gave me the formal training, but it was growing up bilingual in Shiprock, the Navajo Nation, that gave me the instinct and cultural fluency I rely on every day as a Navajo translator.

As a certified Navajo translator, I work extensively in government and federal agency settings, supporting law enforcement interviews, social services cases, and federal court proceedings. My professional Navajo translation services meet the strict standards required by government contracts.

My commitment to the Navajo-speaking community goes beyond professional translation — I volunteer with local organizations to expand language access for underserved populations.

Life in the Navajo Nation prepared me with fluency in Navajo; life in America showed me how desperately that skill is needed — so I became a professional translator.

Immigration law is at the heart of my practice — I provide Navajo to English translation for asylum hearings, bond hearings, removal proceedings, and attorney-client consultations. I am deeply familiar with immigration terminology and the emotional weight these cases carry.

Backed by 7 years of experience and a deep respect for accuracy, I deliver Navajo translation services that clients trust for their most consequential communications.
