@kimikohanari
Experienced Japanese content creator and AI trainer specializing in data annotation and language quality.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced Japanese content creator and AI trainer with a background in editing educational materials and producing web content. I have worked freelance since 2013, delivering clear, audience-focused articles and website copy.
My editorial career began with producing home study materials for junior high students, which established my linguistic precision and attention to pedagogical clarity. I later gained telemarketing and B2B communication experience, strengthening client-facing skills.
Recently I have contributed to AI model training by creating prompts, recording conversational Japanese speech, transcribing audio, and verifying accuracy to ensure natural phrasing and consistency. I focus on producing high-quality language data that improves model understanding of everyday Japanese.
I am motivated, flexible, and deeply interested in AI advancements; I seek roles where I can apply my content, annotation, and quality-control expertise to refine language models and support practical communication applications.
