What I'm looking for

I seek remote roles where I can lead annotation and QA efforts, improve dataset quality, mentor teams, and contribute to impactful AI/ML projects with collaborative, growth-oriented companies.

I am an AI Data Specialist with over five years' experience leading data labeling, annotation, quality assurance, and preprocessing across text, image, audio, and video domains. I have improved dataset accuracy through structured annotation workflows, pairwise comparisons, and rigorous QA, and have mentored junior annotators to maintain consistent labeling standards.

I collaborate effectively on remote, international teams and deliver high-volume projects on deadline, leveraging tools like Labelbox, CVAT, Supervisely, and Amazon SageMaker. My work has measurably reduced annotation errors and boosted model training data quality, and I contribute to AI for social good and STEM mentoring initiatives.
