After finishing her master in Philosophy of Music at Boğaziçi University in Istanbul, she is currently reading for her second master’s degree in Rhythmic Choral Conducting at the Royal Academy of Music, Denmark. Here she combined her passion for pop & jazz music with her deep interest in folk music and created a unique way of leading choirs. As a versatile conductor she appears at numerous choral events, leading singers from all age groups. She won many prizes globally while conducting the Boğaziçi University Jazz Choir. Her enthusiasm for expressing her own cultural background in music and for bringing the choral world together made her known as a pioneer of rhythmic choral music. Today she explores more choral music with her well-known choir “Chromas”, and she frequently gets invited as guest conductor by many other choirs and leading ateliers, where she shares her proficiency and her unique style.
