What I'm looking for

I’m looking for remote language and AI dataset work where human-quality Kiswahili–English translation matters. I’ll deliver fast, deadline-tight output with strong KE cultural context, and support transcription, audio annotation, translation QA, and prompt writing.

I’m a native Kiswahili and Sheng speaker from Kericho, with fluent English and conversational Kalenjin. I translate English ↔ Kiswahili for Kenyan audiences across apps, M-Pesa content, NGOs, and AI datasets.

I deliver 100% human translation with fast turnaround, and I’m ready for M-Pesa payout. I focus on clear, natural phrasing and strong KE cultural context—especially for user-facing UI, subtitles, and customer support.

On the AI side, I work with transcription, audio annotation, translation QA, and prompt writing to improve dataset quality. I use tools like Google Translate, Kamusi Project, Glosbe, MS Word, and OmegaT, and I’m detail-oriented and deadline-driven.
