Current occupation

Crime reporter-Youth worker

Work experience

As a crime reporter and youth leader, I covered high-profile femicide and child abuse cases, which deepened my commitment to feminist advocacy. Today, I deliver seminars—including TEDx talks—on gender-based violence, media language, new masculinities, and feminist storytelling. I train youth workers and educators, connecting courtroom realities with community-based action across Europe.

Educational pathway

I hold a master’s degree in Human Rights in Politics, Law and Society and a double major in Political Science & International Relations and Journalism from Yeditepe University. I worked as a court reporter covering gender-based violence cases and founded Be Aware Association to support disadvantaged children through non-formal education. These academic and grassroots experiences have shaped my intersectional approach to training, where law, lived experience and feminist theory meet.
