What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow in AI and machine learning, contributing to innovative projects.

I am an experienced Data Annotator with over 3 years of expertise in the field, having collaborated with leading AI tech giants such as Telus International AI Inc. and Remotasks. My work primarily focuses on various data annotation projects, including photo and video annotation, speech recognition, and LIDAR annotation on both 2D and 3D tasks. I am dedicated to leveraging my skills to support organizations in developing technologies that will shape the future of humanity.

Currently, I serve as a Photo Annotator at Telus International, where I am responsible for annotating images, texts, and videos based on data sourced from my Google Photos library. This role has allowed me to engage in close to 10 different AI tasks, enhancing my proficiency in data quality review and annotation processes. Previously, I worked as a Remotasker, where I handled various artificial intelligence and machine learning projects, including LIDAR annotation, image segmentation, and audio transcription.
