I’m Vijay, and I want to share a little bit about my journey and the incredible experiences I've had along the way. Here's what some of my clients have to say: "Vijay was great to work with! He was very professional and really committed to delivering the best results.

I highly recommend Vijay to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled customer support specialist. I look forward to working together again in the future!" So, where did this all start? Back in 2010, I earned my Bachelor of Engineering degree in Information Science from Visvesvaraya Technological University. That was the foundation that launched my career in the tech world. Soon after, I joined Wipro Technologies as an Application Support Engineer, diving into the heart of IT Support. I specialized in Application Support, Incident, and Problem Management, quickly gaining a reputation for resolving complex issues and providing stellar customer service. By 2012, I was trusted with advanced L2 & L3 roles, working closely with development teams to enhance client satisfaction. Fast forward to 2015, I took a significant step forward, transitioning to a Leadership role as an Associate Consultant at Wipro Technologies. Leading a team of over 30 professionals, I managed critical IT Operations, focusing on Service Delivery, Project Management, and Operational Efficiency. One of my biggest achievements was leading the implementation of Zoho Desk, which significantly improved our ticketing system's efficiency. This experience solidified my skills in Business Analysis, Project Management, and Application Support, equipping me with the ability to drive impactful solutions. By 2022, I was ready for a new challenge—and that’s when I ventured into the world of freelancing. My motivation? The desire for flexibility and a variety of new opportunities. Today, I specialize in Data Analysis, Application Support, Digital Project Management, Virtual Assistance, and Customer Support. My freelance projects have been as diverse as they come—from handling massive Data Collection efforts involving 1.9 million entries to providing Transcription, Translation, and Proofreading services. I even expanded my horizons with Audio & Voice Recording projects that required a native Indian English accent! Plus, I’ve helped businesses streamline their operations with effective Business Process Mapping. With over a decade of experience in this field, I bring a unique blend of technical expertise and freelancing agility. My in-depth knowledge of Ticketing Platforms, Customer Service Protocols, and Digital Project Management enables me to offer tailored solutions that drive operational success and elevate Service Delivery. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here are a few more words from my clients: "Collaborating with Vijay was a fantastic experience!

My current expertise as a freelancer is in the fields of AI training (including prompt writing and prompt evaluation, voice prompting, TTS (text-to-speech models), data annotation, domain phrasing localization, audio quality evaluation, speech synthesis output evaluation etc), translation, voice-over recording, audio and video editing in Kannada. Artificial Intelligence training and evaluation ---------- I've been involved in several AI training related projects in Upwork. This includes 1. Training a virtual assistant (domain phrasing localization) 2. Speech synthesis evaluation (intonation, acronyms, ordinals, numbers) 3. AI translated output (text) evaluation (grammar, sentence formation, preservation of original intent, emotion) 4. Voice Prompting and TTS (text-to-speech models) 5. Voice-over evaluation My career as a professional journalist in the Kannada electronic media industry lasted 8 years. Details of my professional experience are available below in the Employment History section. My areas of expertise and specializations include: Voice-Over ---------- 1. I host a YouTube Channel (BannadaChitte) of short Kannada Stories (less than 5 minutes each). I record the stories in my own voice and I publish every week. This has given me continuous and regular experience with voice-over. 2. I have successfully completed several voice-over projects on UpWork. Content Writing -------- Content writing is my strongest skill. It has not only been my profession, but also my passion. I've continued my journey into content writing even after I quit my daily job. I regularly write articles for leading Kannada publications. I have two weapons that make the content I write shine: 1. My experience in field reporting, which gives me unique perspective into the daily lives of people from all strata of society (more details in the section on "Field Reporting" below) 2. I've stayed in Europe for 4 years, which gives me insight into different lifestyles and cultures. Many of my articles stem from a combination of these factors. For example, one of my articles published in Sudha magazine (the title of which translates to "Before embarking to distant shores"), talks about what are the factors one should consider before migrating abroad. Field reporting -------- I have 5 years of experience in field reporting. I reported on a wide variety of events, ranging from the mundane, all the way to the extraordinary. In a typical day at work I would interact with people from all walks of life - the poorest labourers to celebrities and even the Chief Minister. Translation to Kannada -------- I started my journey in the media world as a copy editor and copy writer. I have 3 years experience in this area. This is the job which gave me exposure to translation from English to Kannada and Hindi to Kannada. I've translated national and international news to Kannada. Fiction and non-fiction -------- Besides writing professionally, I also write stories and non-fiction as a hobby. I write in both short and long formats and several of these have been published in Kannada publications. My experience staying abroad has given me the opportunity to write several travelogues.
