Summary

I am a dedicated Nepali interpreter with over three years of experience in medical, business, customer service, and general interpretation. With a strong commitment to professional standards, I am HIPAA-compliant and have completed specialized training, including Jeenie certification and an ILR-compatible language proficiency test with TransPerfect. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with respected organizations such as LTC Language Solutions, Hands Up Communication, TransPerfect Connect, and MedTrans Go. I am currently seeking remote VRI/OPI opportunities in the healthcare, finance, utilities, travel, and general business sectors. I’ve honed my linguistic, cultural, and interpersonal skills in diverse interpreting settings, enabling me to facilitate clear communication and understanding across language barriers. Passionate about effective and meaningful interactions, I am eager to transition into new fields where my skills can make a positive impact.
