English-Tigrinya translator and English-Amharic translator

As an experienced translator, I create high-quality Tigrinya and Amharic documents. I regularly work on translations that contain niche terminology and can tailor my services to each client.

Drawing on my extensive training, I provide accurate translations that match the content and tone of the original document. My translation process involves undertaking necessary research, staying up to date on vocabulary, and using the right tools for each project.
