About

I’m Kazime Adélakoun, a linguistics-focused freelancer specialized in English–French language work, including transcription, annotation, and translation. I’m meticulous with timestamps, speaker/language labeling, and consistent formatting rules (e.g., overlap handling and language tags), and I enjoy turning raw audio into clean, well-structured data.

I’ve supported multiple annotation and transcription projects across different domains (healthcare, call center, finance, and long-form conversations), as well as speech collection and inverse text normalization review. With a strong background in French and English linguistics and a native-like command of Yoruba, I’m comfortable working independently, following detailed guidelines, and delivering high-quality, review-ready outputs.
