ABOUT
I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Modern European History at Stanford University. My dissertation examines the history of Turkish-German guest worker families' transnational connections to their homeland, with an emphasis on return migration and reintegration in Turkey. More broadly, I am interested in migration, gender/sexuality, race, everyday life, and transnational approaches.
