Mr. Leo N.
Navajo Translator · Rhode Island
Translation in English into Navajo and Navajo into English.
Before becoming a professional translator, I spent years working in international trade between the Navajo Nation and the United States, which honed my Navajo and English bilingual skills to a professional standard.
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.
My approach combines linguistic precision with genuine cultural competence — I do not just convert words between Navajo and English, I ensure the full meaning and intent are preserved.
