What I'm looking for

I'm looking for flexible, remote part-time work evaluating AI content, annotating data, designing assessments, or creating educational materials. I work well asynchronously with clear guidelines, quality review, and structured feedback.

I've evaluated and corrected English and Swahili AI responses at Outlier AI, using defined quality standards to improve accuracy, cultural appropriateness, and language comprehension.

Through Scale AI projects, I've contributed to large-scale AI training through data collection, annotation, pairwise comparison, counting, and object-tagging across text, audio, image, and video.

I've also taught Swahili and literature in Kenyan secondary schools, creating lesson plans, assessing student work, and delivering structured feedback. My Teaching Arts studies and hospital practicum have strengthened my guideline-driven documentation, reporting, and asynchronous remote-work skills.
