ABOUT

As an American expat in London with Turkish Heritage, I’m dedicated to pursuing my interests in community building, sustainable development, multiculturalism, women’s leadership development, healthy living, and Middle Eastern dance.

I’m working at the Design Council as a Project Manager on social and environmental sustainability projects.  Additionally, I’m creating dance learning and performance opportunitiies as the Co-Founder/Artistic Director of DUNYA Belly Dance Duo.

Living with David in Marylebone, I’m enjoying meeting new people, exploring the city, traveling in Europe, embracing technology (social media!) and seeking professional development, community service and dance opportunities.

This website is dedicated demonstrating my personal passions, professional experience, and expat evolution.  I periodically write articles about my experiences and post my Twitter updates weekly that synthesize information and resources associated with my personal and professional interests.

Please feel free to send me resources associated with my self-descriptors:
