My mother tongue is Krio, learned in the streets and classrooms of Freetown, 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 Krio interpreter for high-profile legal proceedings, diplomatic meetings, and multilateral conferences. My professional Krio interpretation services are trusted by attorneys, judges, and executives alike.

Trained in trauma-informed interpretation, I bring sensitivity and composure to asylum interviews, domestic violence cases, and other high-emotion Krio interpretation assignments.

Educated at University of Sierra Leone, I specialized in applied linguistics with a focus on Krio, and have since accumulated 13 years of hands-on interpretation experience.

As a court-certified Krio interpreter, I provide simultaneous interpretation and consecutive interpretation for federal and state courts.

Clients consistently praise my reliability, cultural competence, and attention to detail — qualities I consider essential for any professional Krio interpreter.

Studying at Njala University gave me the formal training, but it was growing up bilingual in Bo, Sierra Leone, that gave me the instinct and cultural fluency I rely on every day as a Krio interpreter.

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

My Krio interpretation services come with a quality guarantee — I stand behind every word and offer revisions to ensure complete client satisfaction.

I am a proud member of IMIA (International Medical Interpreters Association) and bring specialized expertise to every medical Krio interpretation assignment I undertake.

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

I provide over-the-phone and video remote interpretation as a certified Krio interpreter, supporting hospitals, courts, insurance companies, and government agencies with on-demand professional Krio interpretation services available on short notice.

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

Having been raised in a bilingual household — Krio at home and English at school — I developed an intuitive understanding of both languages that has shaped my 6-year career as a interpreter.

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

My credentials include HIPAA compliance training, CCHI certification, and ongoing continuing education to stay current with best practices in professional Krio interpretation.

Raised between two cultures, I have spent 23 years refining my craft as a Krio interpreter, combining deep cultural knowledge with professional-grade linguistic accuracy.

Conference and event interpretation is my specialty — I provide simultaneous interpretation in Krio 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.

Continuously investing in professional development, I regularly attend interpretation industry conferences and workshops to refine my skills as a certified Krio interpreter.
