KenyaWhat I'm looking for

I have created noise-free audio recordings and concise spoken image descriptions to support multimodal AI systems and annotation workflows.
My professional background includes field and administrative roles in environmental management where I developed accurate datasets, prepared technical reports, coordinated community programs, and supervised teams—work that reinforced my precision, consistency, and documentation skills.
I work independently and remotely with proficiency in MS Office and digital data-entry tools, and I am enthusiastic about contributing to cutting-edge AI research by delivering reliable, high-quality audio and annotation work.
