Bio

As a B.A. in Translation & Interpretation from an
accredited university in Turkey, and with a track record of over 20 years of
professional experience in a wide range of translation and linguistic services
across a multitude of disciplines, I am looking for
new, freelance
opportunities in areas of my expertise
where I can provide appropriate, high-caliber, on-deadline
linguistic solutions to clients.

I would also welcome offers on
challenging projects, such as literary fiction or non-fiction
book
translations in TURKISH-ENGLISH or  ENGLISH-TURKISH language pairs (from
Publishing Houses directly, ONLY). My current and contextual knowledge along
with my native-level fluency in both of these languages can prove to be exactly
what the editors and directors of publishing houses are looking for.
