Freelancer Overview

I have hands-on experience in data labeling and AI training data through my work with Handshake AI, where I contributed to seven distinct projects across a range of domains. In these roles, I was responsible for accurately annotating datasets, ensuring data quality, and following detailed guidelines to support the development of machine learning models. My work included tasks such as text classification, image annotation, and data validation, all while maintaining high levels of precision and consistency. What sets me apart is my strong attention to detail, ability to quickly adapt to new annotation frameworks, and commitment to meeting project deadlines without compromising quality. I am comfortable working with large datasets, collaborating with distributed teams, and providing feedback to improve labeling guidelines. My experience across multiple projects has given me a well-rounded understanding of how high-quality training data directly impacts AI performance, and I bring a disciplined, reliable approach to every task.

Labeling Experience

Handshake AI: Project Ohm

DocumentQuestion Answering
Systematically evaluate model responses across multiple quality dimensions. Review model-generated answers and compare them using structured criteria. Based on these evaluations, assign preference rankings that reflect which responses best satisfy the prompt's intent and demonstrate strong reasoning and communication.
