Senegalese Interpreters in Louisiana

After practicing law in Senegal for several years, I pivoted to Senegalese interpretation in the U.S., bringing a unique legal perspective to my work as a interpreter.

Conference and event interpretation is my specialty — I provide simultaneous interpretation in Senegalese for international summits, academic conferences, and large-scale corporate events. I am equally skilled in consecutive interpretation for smaller, high-stakes diplomatic and business settings.

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

Educated at Cheikh Anta Diop University, I specialized in applied linguistics with a focus on Senegalese, and have since accumulated 23 years of hands-on interpretation experience.

As a medical interpreter, I deliver HIPAA-compliant Senegalese interpretation for hospitals, mental health facilities, and outpatient clinics. My interpretation work spans patient intake, surgical consent, psychiatric evaluations, and end-of-life care discussions.

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

My mother tongue is Senegalese, learned in the streets and classrooms of Saint-Louis, and it remains the foundation of everything I do as a professional interpreter today.

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

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

Growing up in Saint-Louis, I was immersed in Senegalese language and culture from birth, and after completing my studies at Cheikh Anta Diop University, I pursued professional interpretation as my calling.

I specialize in legal interpretation, providing professional Senegalese interpretation services for depositions, court hearings, immigration proceedings, and asylum interviews. My expertise covers both Senegalese to English and English to Senegalese across civil, criminal, and family court matters.

Recognized by peers and clients alike for exceptional accuracy, I have maintained a 99% client satisfaction rate across 25 years of professional Senegalese interpretation services.

Raised between two cultures, I have spent 13 years refining my craft as a Senegalese interpreter, combining deep cultural knowledge with professional-grade linguistic accuracy.

My area of expertise is financial and banking interpretation — I translate annual reports, audit findings, compliance documents, and investment prospectuses between Senegalese and English. Clients rely on my professional Senegalese interpretation services when accuracy and confidentiality are non-negotiable.

Every document I produce as a certified Senegalese interpreter includes a signed certification statement and is accepted by courts, USCIS, and academic institutions nationwide.

Military service stationed me around the world, but it was my Senegalese heritage from Senegal that ultimately led me to a fulfilling career as a professional interpreter.

I provide professional Senegalese interpretation services for the real estate and construction industry, covering closings, inspections, HOA meetings, and contractor negotiations. Whether it is a residential purchase or a commercial lease, I ensure every detail is clearly communicated in Senegalese and English.

I am committed to quick turnaround times without sacrificing quality — my clients know they can count on me for accurate Senegalese interpretation even under tight deadlines.

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

Literary and creative interpretation is my passion — I provide Senegalese interpretation services for publishers, authors, and media companies, adapting novels, screenplays, subtitles, and marketing campaigns while preserving voice, tone, and cultural nuance between Senegalese and English.

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