About Me

Hey!

I’m 25yo sociology and marketing student in Warsaw.

Been doing activism in the field of LGBTI+ rights and gender based violence for 6 years in Turkey, then I quit my roles in the organizations that I worked for and moved out to Poland in 2019. Focused on peer training, university clubs and its regulations, social policy and lobbying for local governments and advocacy during election campaigns.

Right now all the momentum of my life has changed and I’m focused on branding and marketing, even tho it’s my first year of my studies looking for an internship currently.

But still, I have never lost my strong willing to understand things exist on the earth. Going through deeper in mind is always a pleasure for me :)

It’s been long time that I’ve been stuck in the flow of my own life and problems, so this account were inactive for long time. Yet I am back, here!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I camped many times alone starting with my 15
Never counted how many flights I had yet I have over 90 boarding passes on my name in my collection

Teach, Learn, Share

I love talking and getting to know about women and LGBTI+ rights, cultures, psychology and politics. You can find a good background about gender studies with me. I’m also good at music, learning music production so I’d love to hear about your experience with Ableton or other apps :)

I cook Middle Eastern cuisine well, yet I think I am a good company for parties or drinking nights!
