What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead AI enablement, talent operations, and quality systems for large-scale human-in-the-loop AI programs, partnering closely with product, engineering, and enterprise stakeholders to improve delivery, contributor performance, and process reliability.

At MediaGen at TEKsystems supporting Meta, I lead AI client communication and tooling enablement for distributed AI training contributors, connecting program leadership, research, enterprise stakeholders, and contributors.

I've scaled onboarding for 40+ hires, directed a 54-contributor multimodal data-collection program, and managed a 21-person operational vertical with three team leads. My teams delivered 14 datasets totaling 12,994+ rows, 741,955 video annotations, and 38.5 million image annotations.

I use weekly KPI reporting, quality spot checks, root-cause analysis, and coaching rituals to improve delivery health and consistency. I also designed an access-recovery protocol that restored contributor access within hours during mass system deactivations.

My AI work includes evaluating LLM outputs, creating prompts, assessing multimodal content, and validating healthcare and life-sciences information for retrieval-augmented generation workflows. Earlier in healthcare imaging, I built training guides, improved workflows, and supported high-quality MRI operations across clinical teams.
