What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply bilingual translation, teaching, and AI language skills—collaborative teams, clear impact, and opportunities to develop localization and dataset work.

I am a bilingual Igbo-English linguist, translator, interpreter, technical writer, editor, and educator with a B.Ed in Igbo Language. I have hands-on experience in teaching, translation, transcription, and AI-powered language projects, and I focus on conveying meaning with clarity, accuracy, and cultural understanding.

As a freelance linguist and Igbo language instructor I provide online and offline tutorials for learners in Nigeria and the diaspora, develop lesson plans and assessments for secondary students, and contribute to AI language datasets such as the All Igbo Language Project with Data Science Nigeria.

I have translated over 50,000 words with high accuracy and cultural nuance, and I adapt quickly to tools and platforms provided by employers to support educational, cultural, and AI-related projects.
