I work as an interpreter but actually I am an International Relations graduate (2002) from Bonn University in Germany, living and working in Ankara since 2004. The topic of my Masters Degree was: "The Middle East Water Conflict." (Euphrates/Tigris, Blue & White Nile and the Jordan River Basins, dealing with political confrontations, ecological challenges and energy-related opportunities.) I lived in Sweden for four years (1984-88) and then studied and worked in Germany for 15 years (1990-2004) before returning to Turkey. Upon my return, I worked as a Researcher at a political think-tank (ASAM- Center For Eurasian Strategic Studies) and then as a Foreign Trade Specialist for various industrial companies (GEMAK Food Industry Machinery, HEPER Exterior Lighting, etc.) Between 2006 and 2010, I run my own construction and architectural company together with my brother, Architect, Mr. Murat. Being exposed to foreign languages, countries and cultures as a child, I had to develop language and cultural skills very early to survive in my social environment. I communicate in English and German very well. I'm also an intermediate level Spanish and Swedish speaker. Turkish, is my mother tongue. I am father to 2 children; 19 & 16 years. My children are attending English-spoken private schools since kindergarten. I work as a freelance translator, both verbally, as well as orally. I attend official meetings of ministries and meetings of private companies for negotiations. Considering my background, I would like to assist you as a part of your projects.
