CanadaWhat I'm looking for
As a bilingual professional fluent in French and English, I have cultivated a diverse skill set in AI training, translation, and proofreading. My current role as an AI Trainer has allowed me to work on various French projects, where I assess AI responses for factuality, helpfulness, and localization. My keen eye for detail ensures that every project I undertake meets the highest standards of quality.
In addition to my AI training experience, I have a robust background in translation and editing. I have worked with notable clients, including a six-month contract with the Ministry of Education and two years as the sole translator for Sherwin Williams Automotive. My ability to manage projects effectively while maintaining client relationships has been a cornerstone of my career, allowing me to deliver exceptional results in deadline-critical environments.
