Hayley Jonasson
@hayleyjonasson
Detail-oriented researcher focused on data quality, content evaluation, and precise language analysis.
What I'm looking for
I’m a detail-oriented researcher with strong written communication and analytical evaluation skills, grounded in structured document review and critical assessment. I’m comfortable working independently in remote environments where accuracy, consistency, and guidelines matter. I’m especially interested in AI systems, data quality, and content evaluation tasks that require judgment and precision.
In my current Program Assistant role, I evaluate EAL student reading comprehension and written responses by identifying errors in grammar, coherence, and meaning—then provide structured feedback aligned with learning objectives and evaluation criteria. I apply consistent linguistic judgment to assess clarity, accuracy, and relevance, mirroring guideline-based content evaluation processes used in AI data labeling. I also translate complex academic texts into simplified explanations tailored to different English proficiency levels, using pattern recognition and iterative evaluation to improve outcomes.
My background also includes guideline-driven work across content and data: I transcribe and edit subtitles while maintaining time-synchronized accuracy and consistency, and I support administrative workflows through careful documentation, organization, and data integrity. I’ve additionally created culturally immersive blog content with fact-checking habits and tone/clarity refinement, and I’ve supported students and newcomers through clear, step-by-step communication that adapts to varying language proficiency and context.
