Advanced Prompt Engineer & Data Annotator Stellar AI | 2024 – Present ●​ Complex Prompt Creation: ○​ Developed obfuscated and multi-step prompts to evaluate and expand the reasoning limits of state-of-the-art LLMs, including bilingual (English/Spanish) instruction-following models. ○​ Engineered prompts requiring logical chaining, temporal sequencing, and dynamic reference resolution across simulated web navigation paths. ○​ Designed scenarios involving: ■​ Cross-referencing data between multiple tables ■​ Identifying ordinal values under ambiguity ■​ Extracting the nth-largest element from filtered datasets ■​ Context-dependent retrieval conditioned on earlier outputs (e.g., requiring verification of data from a prior page) ○​ Ensured tasks were: ■​ Solvable by humans with standard reasoning strategies ■​ Structurally valid with a single correct outcome ■​ Robust against shortcut heuristics or pattern memorization by the model ○​ Purpose: To simulate real-world ambiguity and pressure-test AI decision-making under indirect instruction, reference indirection, and uncertainty propagation. ●​ Agentic AI Training & Event Graph Coordination: ○​ Designed multi-turn task simulations within sandboxed mobile OS environments (email, messaging, calendar, ridesharing), involving 30+ sequential or parallel steps with explicit dependencies (e.g., “afterwards,” “then,” “simultaneously”). ○​ Engineered event graph logic to enforce strict step ordering, ensuring agents returned the correct outputs, confirmations, and UI state changes, ensuring no alternative valid pathways are possible. ○​ Simulated realistic user ambiguity by introducing vague, partial, or context-heavy instructions referencing dates, people, or actions, thus mirroring how users communicate outside of AI-optimized phrasing. ○​ Developed logical validation protocols: documented each step’s rationale in plain English to ensure human reproducibility and to verify the existence of only one correct and context-consistent outcome. ○​ Enhanced agent performance by raising reasoning benchmarks, increasing scenario complexity, and minimizing token inefficiency, leading to improved scalability and reduced hallucination rates. ○​ Collaborated with QA teams to iterate on annotation frameworks for advanced reasoning, data linkage, and table parsing; recognized for high creativity, precision, and methodological rigor. Voice Actor (TTS AI & Character Work) Freelance (Voices.com, Voice123.com) | 2022 – Present ●​ Emotionally Nuanced Voiceovers: Recorded 600+ one‑minute dialogues in English and Spanish of varying emotional tones (informative, supportive, ●​ ●​ ●​ ●​ witty, flirtatious) for TTS AI training, capturing paralinguistic cues (sighs, sobs, throat clearing), including projects for leading audiobook publishers and digital learning platforms.
