Bio

I hold a bachelors degree from the University of Nairobi and currently work as a freelance translator and Interpreter(On this I'm on-boarded on Boostlingo where I serve as a Swahili interpreter for Proz). I have been in the industry for a prolific four years thus far. My specialty is in translating and interpreting information from English to Swahili, English to Kikuyu, Swahili to Kikuyu and back.

I'm also the Local payment contact for Proz.com in Kenya, where I facilitate membership payments at a subsidized rate.

I am a self driven person who believes she is only as good as her last project. As such, I strive to deliver the greatest quality of work possible within stated timelines. I am passionate about communication, hence translation and interpretation offer me the best platform to contribute positively and ensure the chain of communication is not broken in our society.

Assign me your project and you will be elated with the results. That is my promise!

Feel free to contact me on +254726226743 or email me on njangok@gmail.com.

Thank you.
