What I'm looking for

I seek remote roles where I can apply human-in-the-loop evaluation, red-teaming, and annotation to improve model safety, accuracy, and alignment while working on complex, ethics-focused tasks.

I am an AI Training Expert specializing in evaluating, annotating, and stress-testing large language models and multimodal AI systems to improve accuracy, alignment, safety, and reasoning depth. I deliver consistent, high-quality human feedback, identify hallucinations and logical errors, and perform red-teaming and trust & safety labeling across text, image, and video.

As an independent contributor since 2023, I have ranked AI responses, conducted fine-grained annotation, and improved dataset reliability through data quality reviews. I bring strong written reasoning, ethics-aware judgment, and the ability to sustain hour-plus focused evaluation tasks with a flexible schedule.
