What I'm looking for

I seek remote or hybrid roles in transcription, data annotation, or communication that value accuracy, client service, collaboration, and opportunities to apply my language and audio skills.

I am a mass communication professional with a Diploma in Mass Communication and hands-on experience in transcription, data annotation, and radio presenting. I have worked remotely on projects involving text and audio labeling, translation, and customer-focused delivery, consistently meeting deadlines and quality standards.

I excel at virtual collaboration, managing large datasets, and using digital tools for productivity and audio editing. My strengths include attention to detail, problem-solving, language fluency in Swahili and English, and a commitment to delivering reliable, client-centered results.
