My mother tongue is Somali, learned in the streets and classrooms of Djibouti City, and it remains the foundation of everything I do as a professional interpreter today.

Specializing in simultaneous and consecutive interpretation, I serve as a certified Somali interpreter for high-profile legal proceedings, diplomatic meetings, and multilateral conferences. My professional Somali interpretation services are trusted by attorneys, judges, and executives alike.

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

Before becoming a professional interpreter, I spent years working in international trade between Somalia and the United States, which honed my Somali and English bilingual skills to a professional standard.

I am a certified Somali interpreter with deep expertise in the insurance and workers' compensation sector. My services span recorded statements, independent medical examinations, and claims proceedings, delivering accurate Somali interpretation services that withstand legal scrutiny.

Court-certified in multiple jurisdictions, I bring 25 years of proven accuracy to every Somali interpretation engagement and maintain an impeccable professional record.

I arrived in the United States from Hargeisa, Somalia, speaking only Somali, and that experience ignited a lifelong commitment to helping others overcome language barriers as a certified interpreter.

My interpretation practice serves the hospitality, tourism, and aviation industries — I provide Somali to English and English to Somali interpretation for training manuals, safety briefings, guest communications, and regulatory documentation.

I hold a sworn interpreter designation recognized by consulates and embassies, enabling me to provide notarized Somali interpretation accepted internationally.
