What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a Hausa and English (Nigerian) Audio Speaker & Evaluator role, contributing accurate evaluations to support AI language and speech technology improvement, including in remote work environments.

As a Hausa and English speaker, I participated in AI testing for Public AI and contributed as a Multilingual Hausa Contributor with Luel, RWS, Meridian Welodata, and Sigma AI.

On the Google Portrait Project, I participated in testing image-recognition and similarity algorithms. I evaluated how models matched and differentiated portraits and provided structured feedback for accuracy and dataset refinement.

At Umaru Musa Yaradua University, I worked as an Undergraduate Research Assistant in the Climate Change, Crop Production & Environmental Risk Laboratory. I assessed crop varieties under different temperature exposures, collected soil samples, and documented research findings.

I also taught Geography and Environmental Management, and completed research training in methodology and scientific writing. My research interests include artificial intelligence, data annotation, and environmental health and safety.
