Bio
Hello,

I have 20+ years of translation/interpretation experience, and in the past have worked in the advertising/media industry for about 13 years. I mainly specialize in marketing, advertising, PR, marketing research, general business, annual reports (including finance, law, charters, contracts etc.), user manuals, catalogs/brochures, websites, etc. However, my translation experience is not limited to these fields as I work with many clients in various industries for several types of projects. I believe a good translator must firstly be a good researcher, and enthusiastic about any field.

Additionally, I'm a published translator - I have a total of 10 book translations (from English to Turkish) published in Istanbul/Turkey. Please see the titles below:
Cosmic Guide - by Debbie Frank, published by Dogan Publishing Company
Cats for Dummies, published by Dogan Publishing Company
Raising Our Children, Raising Ourselves - Naomi Aldort, published by Dogan Publishing Company
My ADHD - Laura Wolmer, published by Dogan Publishing Company
Simplicity Parenting - Kim John Payne and Lisa M. Ross, published by Dogan Publishing Company
The Attachment Parenting - William Sears and Martha Sears, published by Dogan Publishing Company
Putting Children First - JoAnne Pedro-Carroll, published by Dogan Publishing Company
Talking Back to Facebook - James P. Steyer, published by Dogan Publishing Company
Avoiding Armageddon - Bruce Riedel, published by Matbuat Publishing Group
Robert Fisk on Algeria - Robert Fisk, published by Matbuat Publishing Group

I have also interpreting (f2f) experience, having worked at public schools and on legal cases on a freelance basis with LIS Translation company in New York city.
