Portrait of Sevgi Şahin

About

I completed my bachelor's degree in journalism and pedagogical formation at Istanbul University. Through additional studies in economics, I continue to develop my academic interests within an interdisciplinary framework.

At the school newspaper İletim, I worked as a reporter, photographer, and editor. I gained internship experience in the News Research Unit at Oksijen Newspaper. I currently write on culture and the arts for Söylenti Magazine and take an active role at various stages of content production.

I adopt a disciplined approach to research, writing, and editorial work. I continue to grow my output by contributing to projects focused on culture and communication.
