Bio

My professional is in business management.

I have been a translator for the last 22.5 years. I'm so proud that I have participated in translating educational publications including the Holy Bible in Luganda language.

I have also translated a book for children that was written by the Inter-Agency Standing committee and uploaded on their website for the benefit of children and their caretakers. 

I'm also grateful that I have been able to write three books. One about lessons in COVID-19 Lockdown, another one about piggery farming, and the third one entitled "Whoever Wants to Live." All these are also translated into Luganda and are to be made available in other local languages as well.

Because of the special interest I have in translation, I founded a translation company called Bonamix Translation Services Limited.
