Bio

                                                      Welcome!

Hello and thank you for visiting my profile! My name is Abdi Abdirahman Mohamed, a highly experienced and certified English to Somali to Swahili Translator, Interpreter, and Language Specialist. With a deep passion for bridging communication gaps and over five years of hands-on experience, I specialize in delivering accurate, culturally-sensitive, and deadline-driven language solutions across a variety of fields — including medical, legal, educational, and multimedia sectors.


Who I Am

I’m a results-oriented professional with a Bachelor of Arts in Language and Culture from York University and specialized training in translation and interpretation. I hold certifications as a Certified Medical Interpreter (CMI) and ICDL Digital Worker, making me uniquely equipped to handle sensitive and technical content.

Over the years, I’ve partnered with trusted global platforms like Appen, Mi Localize, Bayan Tech, Effective Services, Translation Partner, and Bostlingo, among others. I’ve also maintained a strong freelance presence on ProZ.com since 2019.

🔹 Medical & Business Translation

With strong command of both English, Swahili and Somali, I ensure nothing gets lost in translation — whether I’m working on patient records, court documents, interviews, e-learning content, or community initiatives.
