------------------------------------------------------------



Born and raised in Turkey.

There I worked as a science teacher in public schools. Twice I was ranked in the first 50 among a group of biologists of about 3000.
At age 25 I went abroad for more education. Lived, studied and worked in the U.S. for over 9 years. Received a MSci degree in biology. For a while I continued on PhD.
Right before pausing my studies, I started working for a major jewelry wholesaler. Before getting totally involved in publishing, I was busy with gold and diamonds...



Than I was busy with sales and publishing for a publishing and direct mail company.
In 2003 I returned home and started my own business. Although business was good, I moved with my core family to the Netherlands. This made my daughter, the Little Princes I, multilingual! What more can a translator wish for his children?

In March 2007 we celebrated coming of Little Princes II. In November 2012 we celebrated the Little Princess III.

Keep up good work!

Currently I am providing services as self employed person in the area of medical devices, science, technical topics, translation and editing services in English-Turkish and Dutch-Turkish that I have been doing since 1995.

I should also mention that I am a city bee keeper and nature lover who is also founder of a registered  not for profit organization Stichting Immunobee that holds a not profit status recognized by Dutch Revenue and Tax Dept.

PS:
For good faith projects or NGOs that I sympathize, I may provide free -or barely anything of charge- services depending upon my availability.
