Freelancer Overview

I am an experienced Data Annotation Specialist with a strong background in labeling and preparing high-quality datasets for AI model training across image, video, text, and audio domains. My expertise includes creating bounding boxes, caption matching, timestamp labeling, and generating natural language descriptions for computer vision and NLP projects. I have worked extensively with annotation tools like CVAT, Labelbox, and SuperAnnotate, consistently maintaining over 98% accuracy in high-volume, fast-paced remote workflows. My projects have supported LLM training for robotic task recognition, e-commerce product search assistants, and audio transcription for speech recognition and TTS models. I am adept at following detailed guidelines, collaborating with global teams, and ensuring data quality and compliance, and I am eager to contribute my skills to challenging annotation projects that drive AI automation and innovation.

Audio Data Quality Assurance & Speech Model Training Support (Inflexion Transcribe)

Internal Proprietary ToolingAudioPrompt Response Writing SFTAudio Recording
Worked as an Audio Data & Annotation Specialist contributing to the training and validation of speech recognition and text-to-speech (TTS) systems. Conducted quality assurance analysis on AI-generated voice reproductions, comparing original source audio against multiple synthesized outputs. Evaluated and selected the closest match based on: Pitch accuracy Vocal tone consistency Timing and speech rhythm Loudness balance Background noise levels Identity similarity to the original speaker Ensured that synthesized outputs met fidelity and naturalness standards required for production-level voice models. Performed high-accuracy transcription of podcast and long-form audio content, converting speech into structured text datasets. Maintained strict standards for: Grammar and punctuation Speaker identification Timestamp accuracy (when required) Verbatim vs. clean transcription formatting

Video Segmentation & Temporal Action Annotation for AI Model Training

HumanaticVideoSegmentationObject Detection
Worked as a Video Annotation Specialist contributing to computer vision and action-recognition model training. Performed frame-level video segmentation and timestamp-based annotation, breaking down short-form videos into structured time intervals (e.g., 0.0–10.0 seconds). Precisely identified and marked: Start and end of actions Object interactions (e.g., picking up or dropping items) Movement transitions Idle/no-action periods Behavioral changes within the scene Produced concise, objective descriptions of each segment using standardized annotation guidelines to ensure clarity and consistency. Maintained strict temporal accuracy by aligning written descriptions with exact timestamps, enabling AI systems to learn action boundaries, motion patterns, and event sequencing. Contributed to improving model performance in: Action recognition Event detection Human-object interaction modeling Video summarization systems

Image Evaluator & Search Relevance Optimization (Lionbridge)

LionbridgeImageSegmentationClassification
Served as an AI Image Evaluator and Search Relevance Analyst contributing to the training and optimization of large-scale machine learning systems. As an Image Evaluator, assessed multiple AI-generated images based on pre-written text prompts. Ranked outputs according to realism, natural composition, prompt alignment, and visual accuracy. Selected the most contextually accurate and high-quality images to improve model output performance and reduce synthetic artifacts. As a Search Relevance Evaluator, analyzed user search queries and evaluated product results for functional and contextual relevance. Determined whether returned results were: Exact matches Functional substitutes Complementary products Irrelevant results Applied structured reasoning to ensure that product listings aligned with user intent, mirroring real-world e-commerce evaluation standards. Contributed to improving AI understanding of search intent, product classification accuracy, and result ranking logic.
