I have extensive experience in AI training, data annotation, and linguistic evaluation for major tech clients, with a strong track record in translation quality assessment, conversational AI datasets, and instruction-based annotation workflows.

I’m a native German speaker with near-native English proficiency, and I pride myself on being detail-oriented, reliable, and consistent in guideline-driven, remote collaboration. I love multilingual projects and helping teams improve model safety, clarity, and user experience through precise linguistic feedback.
