Naomi Ngalula Tite
Operations Manager, HR

I have worked closely with interpretation services for several years organizing events in different countries and have witnessed effective interpretation at work.

I am an immigrant to Canada from South Africa and have faced another environment with its own reality. I had to go through a lot of paperwork and with complex language in order to get established; my fluency in the language was a key asset during this time.

Akula Interpreting and Translation LLC give me the opportunity to draw from both my Marketing and Nursing experience and to help people in a different way–through language!
