Freelancer Overview

As an Economics PhD candidate at UCL with expertise in quantitative analysis and AI applications, I bring transferable skills to AI training data and labeling, focusing on precision and domain knowledge. Experienced in using LLMs like GPT-4 for economic modeling, I've developed evaluation rubrics (precision, recall, coverage) and prompt engineering for accurate outputs. My background includes authoring 25+ reports at Frontier Economics, co-authoring LSE papers, and ML coursework covering NLP. Proficient in Python, R, Stata, and SQL, I excel in data synthesis and critical assessment, ideal for annotating economic/financial datasets.
