What I'm looking for

I am looking for a flexible, remote role that allows me to leverage my linguistic expertise in creating high-quality datasets for AI and LLM development.

I am a dedicated researcher and freelance translator with a strong academic background in Humanities and Social Sciences. My passion lies in bridging language barriers, and I have successfully translated a variety of content from Malayalam to English, ensuring cultural context and accuracy. My experience includes proofreading and editing, which has honed my attention to detail and commitment to high-quality work.

In addition to my translation work, I have a rich background in academic writing and research. I have authored long-form content, collaborated with clients to meet specific requirements, and conducted independent research on critical social issues. My presentations at national and international conferences reflect my engagement with the academic community and my commitment to contributing valuable insights to ongoing discussions.
