What I'm looking for
I am a versatile project manager and data specialist with extensive experience in data entry, annotation, transcription, and virtual assistance. I combine strong organizational and timekeeping skills with technical proficiency in 2D and 3D LiDAR annotations to deliver accurate, high-quality results.
My background includes quantity surveying roles and site-clerk responsibilities on large construction projects, where I prepared BoQs, measured works, managed material flows, and assisted in cost estimation for 200+ projects. In data-focused roles I improved data cleaning processes, reduced errors, and performed transcription QA and online research.
I bring a detail-oriented, communicative approach to cross-functional teams, and I am committed to continuous learning—having completed web development training and language study—to better bridge technical and project management needs.
