Versatile biomedical technologist and AI trainer blending science, education, and cybersecurity.
What I'm looking for
I am a multidisciplinary professional with a background in biomedical technology, six years managing a clinical laboratory, and experience as a self-published author and online English educator. I combine technical rigor from the lab with strong communication and instructional skills developed through online tutoring and authorship.
Recently I have transitioned into tech-focused freelance work, spending eight months training AI models for South African English locales, and gaining hands-on experience in app testing and domain quality evaluation. I also hold a Coursera certificate in cybersecurity and practical skills in SIEM tools, Linux, SQL, Bash, and vulnerability analysis.
I bring leadership in operations, quality control, and budgeting from my laboratory management role, paired with a commitment to continuous learning and delivering culturally relevant, high-quality outputs in AI, cybersecurity, and education.
