What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply bilingual data annotation and model evaluation skills, work with cross-functional AI teams, and grow in AI/ML responsibilities within collaborative, quality-focused environments.

I am an AI Trainer and Data Annotation Specialist with hands-on experience preparing high-quality multimodal datasets for computer vision and NLP projects. I have annotated and validated over 2,000 image and video datasets, performed transcription and localization in Swahili and English, and contributed to model evaluation and refinement.

My ICT background includes system administration and technical support at a financial cooperative where I led digital transformation projects, implemented backup and disaster recovery solutions, and provided training to 200+ staff. I leverage this operational experience to ensure data integrity, security, and scalable annotation pipelines.

I collaborate with cross-functional research and engineering teams to design prompts, document model errors, and improve model reasoning and contextual understanding. I am committed to accuracy, cultural relevance, and continuous upskilling in AI and ML to drive reliable model development.
