What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to advocate for human rights and work in social justice, ideally in a collaborative and impactful environment.

I am a dedicated legal professional with a strong foundation in law and a passion for social justice. I graduated from Hacettepe University Law School, where I developed a comprehensive understanding of legal principles and practices. My academic journey has been complemented by practical experiences, including my role as a Trainee Solicitor at the Ankara Bar Association and as a Lawyer at Terra Law Firm.

In addition to my legal expertise, I have engaged in various volunteer projects across Europe, focusing on social economy and community development. My work with organizations in Portugal and Romania has equipped me with unique insights into the challenges faced by vulnerable groups, and I am committed to using my skills to advocate for their rights. Currently, I am pursuing a Master's Degree in Human Rights at Hacettepe University, further enhancing my ability to contribute meaningfully to the field.
