What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster growth, collaboration, and innovation.

I am a versatile professional with expertise in AI training, data management, translation, and administrative support. I have contributed to AI training by evaluating and rating AI-generated responses, enhancing model performance.

Additionally, I have provided data entry and processing services, managed internal databases, and ensured high-quality localization for various clients, including a major U.S. tech company.

I have also worked as an office assistant, overseeing administrative operations, preparing external accounting documentation, and managing internal databases for products, employees, and retail and wholesale customers. I also oversaw restaurant operations, including staff management, customer service, and inventory control.

My translation work spans English, Croatian, and Turkish, ensuring accuracy and cultural relevance.

With a completed Database Administrator training program and a background in administrative operations, I am adept at overseeing office tasks, preparing documentation, and supporting business functions. I possess foundational SQL skills, enabling me to query and manipulate data effectively.

I am passionate about leveraging my diverse skill set to contribute to innovative projects and collaborate with dynamic teams.
