What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that values collaboration and innovation, where I can contribute to impactful projects and continue my professional growth.

As a dedicated translator and interpreter fluent in Turkish, English, and French, I have cultivated a diverse skill set that spans project management and localization quality testing. My journey began with a Bachelor's degree in Translation and Interpretation, followed by an MBA, which has equipped me with a unique blend of linguistic and business acumen.

Over the years, I have honed my expertise through various roles, including freelance content creation and data annotation. My experience as a project assistant at TransPerfect allowed me to manage localization projects for major clients, ensuring that every detail met client expectations. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can leverage my analytical skills to improve processes and deliver high-quality results.
