I am a freelance journalist and translator based in
Diyarbakir.
I was working as an editor at Kurdish section at bianet news website, which is a leading
media outlet practicing right-based journalism for 4 years(2016-2020).
Within last 5 years I was working for various Kurdish media
groups as a reporter, editor and columnist. Above that I worked as fixer and
translator (English, Turkish and Kurdish) with international customers, including Middle
East Eye, Al Jazeera's Listening Post program, the New York Times, Deutsche
Welle English and Zeit Online.
In 2018 I published my first book (Belkî îşev binive, Maybetonight she will sleep, Avesta Publisher)”, based on the personal stories of
the residents in conflict zones, wanting to show the real face of conflicts and
wars from civilian people’s perspectives. The book is now being translated to
English, Italian, German and Turkish.
My works cover many aspects of the Kurdish question and
refugee issues. I contributed as an editor to 46 books in a wide range of
categories from science to literature. In addition to the editing works, I
translated 11 books from Turkish to Kurdish.
