Sinek Sekiz Publishing House

I established an independent publishing house in Turkey, specializing in topics related to gender, sustainability and environmental concerns in all its forms.

From 2010-2022 I served as Editor-in-chief, Art Director, overseeing the entire editorial and production process, from concept to completion, including sales and distribution. During this period, 26 key titles in these genres were translated from their original languages into Turkish and succesfully published.
