About
I am a professional Medical, Legal, and Conference Interpreter and Translator with over 12 years of experience providing OPI (Over-the-Phone Interpretation), VRI (Video Remote Interpretation), simultaneous, and consecutive interpretation services. I specialize in facilitating accurate and culturally appropriate communication in healthcare, legal, humanitarian, and government settings.
I have completed more than 1,000 OPI/VRI interpretation sessions and interpreted over 200 legal proceedings, including medical appointments, mental health consultations, patient-provider interactions, emergency care, court hearings, immigration interviews, and social service appointments. I also have extensive experience translating medical, legal, and official documents while maintaining the highest standards of accuracy, confidentiality, and professionalism.
My professional experience includes working with FTIS LLC, the BBC, the U.S. Embassy, the Anti-Corruption Justice Center (ACJC), Multilingual, Lingotec, Homeland Language Services, and MasterWord. I have also provided interpretation and translation services for international organizations, including WHO, UNDP, UNFPA, UN Women, UNAMA, UNHCR, and USIP.
I am certified in 40-Hour Medical Interpreter Training, Advanced Medical Terminology, HIPAA Compliance, and the NCIHC Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice. Fluent in Dari, Pashto, Persian, and English, I am committed to delivering accurate, confidential, and high-quality interpretation and translation services in both remote and on-site environments.
