Freelancer Overview

I am an experienced AI software validation specialist with a strong background in data annotation, data quality assurance, and large language model (LLM) validation across diverse domains, including psychology and neuroscience. My work involves designing and testing agentic task flows using JavaScript, conducting rigorous peer reviews of AI-generated outputs, and ensuring ethical standards in model-user interactions. I have hands-on experience managing and organizing multiple data systems, maintaining data privacy, and supporting projects that require high attention to detail and accuracy. My academic background in psychology and neuroscience, combined with my technical and analytical skills, enables me to contribute effectively to projects focused on high-quality AI training data and annotation.

Using a information in a generated universe, I created complex, multistep reasoning requests that an average user might ask Siri or another AI assistant. After this, I created a chain of thought in external software to extract the requested information and output the requests. Functions included booking taxis, creating emails, scheduling events and shopping.
