What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my expertise in AI operations to drive impactful projects and contribute to a forward-thinking team.

I am a Strategic Operations Manager with over 5 years of progressive experience in scaling AI data workflows and leading global annotation programs. My journey began at Scale AI, where I rose from a Data Annotator to Program Manager, mastering every layer of AI operations. I have a proven track record in vendor management, cross-functional collaboration, and process automation, consistently delivering high-margin, high-volume AI data solutions.

Currently, I lead AI operations for both public and private sector clients at CNTXT AI, focusing on digital transformation and smart infrastructure. My role involves integrating LLM workflows into enterprise AI stacks, reducing error rates, and ensuring high client satisfaction. I am passionate about aligning AI services with digital initiatives, particularly in the government and energy sectors, and I thrive on driving operational excellence and strategic growth.
