About Usman Mohammed Sharif

With a background in trauma and emergency nursing, I now work as a self-employed bilingual interpreter, specialising in Arabic and Somali languages. My role involves providing vital interpretation services in various settings, including clinics, hospitals, schools, social services, the police, and courts. I cover a wide geographical area across the northeast of England, including Middlesbrough, Redcar, Hartlepool, Sunderland, Newcastle, and surrounding villages.

My work supports clear communication and understanding in sensitive and complex situations, ensuring that individuals receive the assistance they need. I am passionate about bridging language barriers and helping people navigate essential services, particularly in healthcare and legal environments. My experience in trauma nursing provides me with a unique perspective, allowing me to remain calm and focused in high-pressure situations.
