What I'm looking for

I seek a role in a collaborative AI/data-labeling team focused on high-quality annotation, QA, and opportunities to train and support colleagues.

I am an experienced image annotation specialist with extensive hands-on work in image segmentation, bounding box creation, video annotation, transcription, and data categorization across multiple AI data-labeling platforms.

Since 2019 I have worked with organizations such as Samasource, Remotask, Avala AI and Clutterbot AI performing annotation, reviewing work, quality checks, and providing floor support and training to colleagues.

My background includes a BSc in Biotechnology and a certificate in Digital Literacy and Image Annotation, combining technical understanding with practical annotation skills and attention to detail.

I am driven to contribute effectively to organizational success, improve processes through quality assurance, and mentor teammates while continuing to grow my technical annotation and review capabilities.
