What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply annotation and linguistic expertise to improve AI models, within collaborative teams that value accuracy, clear guidelines, and opportunities for skill growth.

I am a data specialist and linguistic reviewer with over five years' experience supporting AI training through data annotation, linguistic quality review, content moderation, and model evaluation. I consistently deliver accurate, guideline-compliant datasets and maintain top-tier quality ratings across projects.

I have practical experience reviewing English and Kiswahili translations, performing text, image and audio evaluation, search relevance assessment, and survey/UX evaluations. My work for global AI vendors emphasizes high accuracy (95%+), strong attention to detail, and adaptability to diverse guidelines and tools.

Prior to my AI-focused work, I supported automotive maintenance and diagnostics at a certificate level, bringing technical understanding and practical troubleshooting skills. I am deadline-driven, an effective communicator, and committed to producing reliable, scalable datasets that improve model performance.
