Abduselam Lugo

I've provided multilingual legal and language services to international legal and linguistic organizations, research institutions, AI companies, and private clients since 2015. My work spans English, Amharic, Afaan Oromo, and Arabic across translation, localization, transcription, editing, and linguistic quality assurance.

I've translated, edited, and proofread more than 200 children's books into Amharic and Afaan Oromo, maintaining educational accuracy and cultural relevance. I've also transcribed and translated more than 2,000 minutes of multilingual interviews and focus groups into publication-ready English.

My 12+ years of legal practice include criminal prosecution, legal research, drafting opinions and indictments, contract review, evidence documentation, investigation-team supervision, and legal advisory work. I translate legal documents with close attention to confidentiality, compliance, and ethical standards.

I'm experienced in AI data annotation, prompt evaluation, LLM human evaluation, speech transcription, machine translation post-editing, and multilingual quality assurance. I bring legal reasoning, linguistic accuracy, cultural adaptation, and reliable remote collaboration to projects across legal, education, research, and technology sectors.
