What I'm looking for

I seek translation or interpreting roles where I can apply academic translation skills, maintain terminology consistency, and contribute to clear cross-cultural communication in timely, collaborative environments.

I am a trained Translator and Interpreter with a Bachelor's degree in Translation and Interpreting (English) from Trakya University. I hold language proficiency certificates such as YDS and YÖKDİL, and I focus on accurate, clear translation that preserves terminology and cultural nuance.

I have experience translating subtitles, academic texts, and transcripts, and I have supported social media content and strategy for organizations. I prioritize fidelity to source text, consistency in terminology, and timely delivery to build bridges between individuals and institutions.
