What I'm looking for

I’m looking for roles in international research or AI teams where I can support molecular/epidemiology studies, ensure high-quality dataset annotation, and turn analyses into clear reporting with mentorship and cross-cultural collaboration.

I’m an MSc Agricultural Biotechnology candidate (MATE, Hungary) with a BSc in Biomedical Sciences & Technology and hands-on research experience at the Kenya Medical Research Institute. My training blends molecular biology and genomics with practical data analysis, research documentation, and clear stakeholder communication.

At KEMRI, I supported molecular epidemiology and disease surveillance by contributing to protocol-compliant data collection across multiple study sites. I managed and organized laboratory records and datasets to maintain accuracy, traceability, and compliance, and I conducted data entry and preliminary analysis using Excel and SPSS.

I also bring strong AI training capability from real, feedback-focused work: data annotation and labelling (text and scientific), scientific content review and fact-checking, and AI model output evaluation. I write and test prompts for LLMs, support RLHF/preference ranking, and apply taxonomy/ontology labelling with quality assurance for training datasets, including cross-lingual annotation (English & Swahili).

As a part-time Team Lead at True Blaq Marketing Agency, I practiced structured reporting and cross-functional coordination by compiling campaign performance summaries from field data. I’m motivated to contribute to international research organisations, NGOs, intergovernmental bodies, and AI development teams where quality, ethics, and evidence-based decisions matter.
