I'm a self-taught and self-driven English-Swahili translator. I embarked on this venture in 2013 and I've progressively perfected the art over the years. I offer my services to individuals, government institutions, corporations etc; both local and international. I do this out of passion and my love for the Swahili language. Through the years, I've successfully done many translations and quite a few editing and proofreading projects. Some local clients I've done projects for include several individuals (eulogies, prayers etc), the Nairobi County Government, Ministry of Environment and Forestry, Human Rights Defenders etc. My international clients (through proxy) are Eastern Africa Farmers Federation - Rwanda, Burundi, and Tanzania, GlaxoSmithKline etc. Through a Nigerian translation company called Babelos, I have done projects for Samsung, Nokia, Adobe, Canva, Microsoft, Liahona, IPSOS, Caterpillar, TransCelerate, LDS, Glint, Aon Hewitt etc. Indeed, I have ongoing projects with these firms at varying intervals, notably Samsung and Canva. I'm also a translator rated five stars on BLEND (formerly One Hour Translation), an international online translation firm. Moreover, I have with time gained much experience working on projects in assorted fields, which have varying degrees of difficulty and complexity: General, agricultural, medical, technical, educational, scientific, religious, legal etc. I'm proficient in using translation and review tools/platforms like Smartling, SDL Trados Studio, XLIFF, Memsource, Quality Review App etc; as well as conventional applications like MS Word, Ms Excel, Email etc.
