I’m a passionate linguist and phonetician interested in the use of modern linguistic tools for the preservation of minority and endangered languages
Misson
Embark on a journey of innovation with a dynamic professional at the intersection of LLMs, linguistics, and AI. As a researcher in adversarial testing, I spearhead comprehensive assessments of prompt-based applications and large language models, ensuring robust security measures. I’ve overseen engineering linguists at LinkedIn where I streamlined training documents and improved user outcomes. I’ve refined the Google Assistant at Google, where my multifaceted role included end-to-end project management, NLP machine training and testing, and collaboration with diverse and asynchronous teams. Proficient in creative resource utilization, I navigate complex tasks with aplomb.
Beyond technical expertise, my commitment to linguistic diversity is evident in my passion for native, indigenous, endangered, underrepresented, undocumented, minority, and emerging languages. I actively contribute to the preservation of these languages, leveraging my diverse skill set. Whether engaging in alpha-testing for Google Assistant devices in multiple Spanish locales or optimizing data lifecycles for LinkedIn's key features, I consistently integrate linguistic nuances into cutting-edge projects. Collaborate with me to not only advance technological frontiers but also contribute to the preservation of linguistic heritage.
