What I'm looking for

Across annotation and evaluation projects, I’ve reviewed thousands of AI data items and maintained approximately 95%+ accuracy/quality. I also compare model responses, identify recurring failure modes, and provide structured feedback for improvement.
Since 2019, I’ve written, edited, and proofread digital content, completing 500+ articles and content pieces. I also work on Swahili and English transcription and language review, checking transcripts against audio and maintaining 95%+ quality standards.
