What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values language skills and analytical abilities, offering opportunities for growth and collaboration.

I am a dedicated language expert and reviewer with a strong background in finance. With over 5 years of experience in financial accounting and audit, I have honed my skills in financial modeling and analysis while also engaging in AI training projects. My passion for languages, particularly Swahili and English, drives my work in translation and copywriting, ensuring that content is both accurate and culturally relevant.

Throughout my career, I have contributed to various projects aimed at enhancing AI-generated responses, evaluating content for accuracy, and providing localization ratings. My role as a Languages Expert has allowed me to support large language models in the Kiswahili domain, ensuring that AI systems are trained effectively. I pride myself on my analytical skills and attention to detail, which have been crucial in my work across different financial roles, including as a Finance and Admin Officer.
