I specialize in language, communication, and AI-related content, combining my background in linguistics, teaching, and real-world customer interaction. With a degree in Portuguese and English Studies and a CELTA certification from Cambridge, I have developed strong skills in linguistic analysis, cross-cultural communication, and content evaluation. My work focuses on how meaning, tone, and nuance are constructed — especially in contexts involving interaction between humans and language models. I have experience in teaching and customer-facing roles, which allows me to understand language not only from a theoretical perspective but also in real-world communication. This helps me evaluate clarity, intent, and naturalness in written content. I am particularly interested in: - Language model training and evaluation - Content annotation and refinement - Translation (English ↔ Portuguese) - Proofreading and linguistic review I bring attention to detail, cultural sensitivity, and a critical approach to language. If you're looking for someone who understands both the structure and the subtlety of communication, I’d be glad to contribute to your project.

Quality Assurance and Content Specialist focused on AI Language Model Alignment and Evaluation. I leverage expert-level linguistic precision in Hebrew (Native) and English to execute structured QA protocols, specializing in RLHF evaluation, prompt design, and identifying nuanced patterns in model behavior. My approach combines analytical rigor with a deep commitment to quality and cultural consistency.
