Summary
- I am a professional interpreter and language specialist
with 5+ years of experience supporting NGOs, healthcare
teams, legal professionals, and international organizations
working with Rohingya and Burmese-speaking communities.
As a native Rohingya speaker — one of very few
professionally certified interpreters in this critically
under-resourced language — I bridge communication gaps
where it matters most.
I have completed 350+ field and remote interpretation
sessions covering medical consultations, asylum case
interviews, legal screenings, protection programs, and
community outreach across Bangladesh and Myanmar.
I hold a 40-Hour Medical Interpreter Training Certificate
from Multilingual Technologies Inc., HIPAA Certification
(100% score), FWA Certification (100% score), and IELTS
Band 6.5 (C1 level).
Available immediately for remote OPI, video, phone,
field, or office-based interpretation roles with
international organizations, NGOs, healthcare providers,
resettlement agencies, and legal teams worldwide.
