She started her artistic activity in 2020 by designing and making leather bags. She paints and makes music and short films. As she found filmmaking her biggest passion and the ultimate tool to satisfy her creative needs, she aims to become a full-time filmmaker and produce movies based on her stories.

Recently, she has been working on her two books. One of them is a fantasy trilogy.

She enjoys working with international teams, and in the future, she would like to work as a producer, bringing together crews from all parts of the world for international productions.
She aims to share her experiences and what she learned to help others find their way out of the darkness and motivate them to work for a happier life.
She wishes to show others how far we can go if we stop questioning ourselves, and we can do everything if we are willing to pay the price.

Her life philosophy is the Art of Life
“Life is like a piece of art; we choose the shapes and the colors, and the final work`s quality depends on how much effort and love we put into it.”
I do not want to be better or different from others; I want to be me.
I do not want to be perfect, as nothing is perfect in this life. In addition, little imperfections make things unique and adorable. My message is that you do not need to be perfect; do your best, and that is enough!
