Experienced Kannada media professional with 20+ years of experience as a journalist, translator, writer, voice-over artist and AI trainer and evaluator. I am an ex-journalist now working as a freelance Kannada translator, writer, and voice-over artist, with extensive experience in data annotation, AI training, and audio projects. My background in television news as a reporter, copy editor, and VO artist has trained me to work under tight deadlines while consistently delivering high-quality content.​ I have strong experience in dubbing, content writing, and creative writing, and I am a published Kannada author. I undertake a wide range of Kannada linguistic projects, combining editorial, creative, and technical skills built over 23 years in the media and language industry.
