What I'm looking for

I’m available for remote freelance annotation, translation, transcription, and AI training projects.

At Colleges and Institutes Canada (CICan Africa), I lead MEL systems design and implementation for East African programs, including the Empowerment Through Skills Program. I authored bilingual Swahili/English data tools, reporting templates, and training materials used across 12 partner colleges.

I produce and review Swahili content for digital platforms, research instruments, program reports, and training materials. My language work includes transcription and translation, bilingual content review, and AI-generated content quality assurance.

At Global Communities Tanzania, I conducted data quality assessments and evaluations for a USDA-funded Food for Education program. I trained Swahili-speaking enumerators on survey tools and WEOs on CommCare data collection.

I’m available for remote freelance annotation, translation, transcription, and AI training projects. I work with Tanzanian standard Swahili, regional and colloquial usage, and professional English.
