Pros & Cons of Hiring Me:
Pros
- Reliable: I am on time, I meet deadlines; no matter the stakes, I’ve always proven that I can be counted on.
- Friendly & Respectful: I’m nice, courteous, professional. In the past, doing direct service at a nonprofit, even when working with upset or challenging members of the public, I was always calm and respectful, and found ways to help, alleviating anyone’s anger, making sure everyone was heard and responded to.
- Diverse Knowledge & Skill Set: I have studied and worked in all aspects of film production; worked with Photoshop daily; managed social media accounts and websites; managed people, too; I read a wide range of books and am interested in (and teach myself about) a wide range of subjects; know a surprising amount about codecs and a small bit about programming; have taught classes and created curricula; migrated and managed databases; even re-organized equipment rooms—to name a few examples, off the top of my head.
- Fast Learner: This is how I wound up with that diverse knowledge and skill set. I can’t say I in any way earned this, but I’m grateful for it: I’ve always had the ability to quickly understand how and why something works.
- Creative: Then, once I’ve understood how and why something works, I immediately start thinking of new things to do with it, and how to improve it.
- Proofreader’s Eye: I have an impeccable eye for spelling, grammar, and punctuation. And the flexibility to match a company’s style—for instance, removing Oxford commas, if that’s preferred.
Cons
- Recovering Perfectionist: I have learned that if there is *not* a deadline, I have to give myself one, or I will work on the project until the end of time.
- Quiet: Not historically the one to start the conversation. Once, I was proud of earning the “ResTV Ninja Award” at my campus TV station, awarded for coming in, doing my work, and leaving without anybody knowing I’d been there—but over time, I’ve realized a person can be too quiet. I have improved a lot over the years, and continue to push this comfort zone.
- Diverse Knowledge & Skill Set: For example, since I’ve worked in every aspect of film production, I have above-average knowledge and skills in lighting, shooting, directing, editing, and some simpler special effects and animating, but I have expertise in none of these.
- Creative: Sometimes, the boss isn’t looking for originality. I have learned to restrain my instincts and follow a more worn path, depending on the situation.
- Proofreader’s Eye: Not everyone always wants to know their hyphen should have been an em-dash. I don’t usually correct people’s writing. But if I see a mistake on something public-facing, that represents the company, I will usually ask the person responsible whether they want to be informed of any errors—and if they don’t care about em-dashes, I don’t bother them.
- Zero Hand-Eye Coordination: If part of the job is drawing, cutting, or folding in a straight line (without software), I am the wrong candidate.

I currently evaluate frontier AI model outputs for AI data companies. Before that, I spent years in roles where data accuracy mattered, from maintaining digital nautical charts used for marine navigation to serving as subject matter expert for geographic and demographic research datasets used in major business decisions.
Here's what my background means for your project:
-Accuracy. I read style guides closely, flag ambiguities early, and catch edge cases. I've spent my career reviewing data and product releases for accuracy before they reached the people relying on them, and I bring the same care to annotation and QA work.
-Communication. I've supported major client accounts, run trainings, and written documentation that makes complicated data understandable. I respond quickly, ask questions when the brief is unclear, and keep you updated.
Relevant experience. Annotation frameworks, QA workflows, and quality rubrics are what I work in daily, so there's no ramp-up time on your project.
WHAT I DO:
-AI Data & Annotation: AI model evaluation and response rating, AI data annotation and labeling across text, audio, and video, transcription and transcription QA for audio, video, and meeting notes, and app and software testing grounded in professional UAT experience
-Data & Research: data entry, enrichment, and database management in Excel and Airtable, data analytics, market and competitor research, consumer segmentation and audience profiling, demographic and geographic reporting, and survey design and analysis
-GIS & Geospatial: custom mapping and spatial analysis with ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, FME, and Mapbox, plus location data and demographic mapping for real estate, urban planning, and logistics. I hold a Geography degree and worked as a professional geospatial analyst.
-Writing & Voice: proofreading and copyediting, technical documentation, how-to guides, training materials, and SOPs, plus voiceover recorded on a professional condenser mic
-Travel Planning: I'm a liscensed travel advisor who creates personalized itineraries for any budget or style, end-to-end logistics covering flights, accommodations, ground transport, visas, and travel insurance, plus access to exclusive hotel, cruise, and airline rates and perks
Whether it's a quick transcription review or a multi-week research engagement, I read the brief carefully, deliver clean work, and hit the deadline!
If you have a project that needs careful, consistent execution, send me a message with the details.
