I am currently a correspondent at TRT World, based in Istanbul.

Before that I worked as a freelancer mainly covering security, drugs and geopolitics in Asia. My work appeared in various outlets, including Newsweek, Al Jazeera English, Prospect Magazine, The Independent, VICE News, and Nikkei Asia. I also contributed analysis to the Royal Society for Asian Affairs (RSAA), United Nations, Brookings Institution, Atlantic Council and other organisations. I have an undergraduate degree in Classics from the University of Oxford and a postgraduate degree in Philosophy from the University of London.
