What I'm looking for

I'm looking for an international role where I can coordinate people, events, partnerships, or HR operations while using Turkish, French, and English in a collaborative cultural, institutional, or corporate environment.

I've supported the Consulate General of Belgium in Istanbul during the Belgium Economic Royal Mission, coordinating business meetings, events, field activities, logistics, and institutional partner relationships.

At Contemporary Istanbul, I designed and implemented the fair's VIP Program, managing international guest relations, travel, invitations, databases, newsletters, and on-site coordination.

Previously, I led recruitment, onboarding, training, performance-management support, and employee-engagement projects at Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Arts (IKSV) and CEVA Logistics. My work has supported both artistic and corporate teams in Turkish, French, and English.

With a History of Art degree from Université de Lille, I've also worked in art auctions and as a simultaneous translator on private yachts. I bring experience across cultural institutions, international events, HR operations, and stakeholder communication.
