I am a Kurdish-Syrian Canadian writer and essayist whose work focuses on Syria, Kurdistan, and the geopolitical transformations of the contemporary Middle East. Through political analysis and creative storytelling, I explore questions of identity, governance, nationalism, and emerging state formations, with particular attention to the Kurdish experience in northeast Syria.

My writing engages with the realities of Rojava, shifting regional alliances, and the changing ideological landscape of the region, combining historical insight with lived social and cultural narratives. Oral history and collective memory also play a central role in my forthcoming short story collection, which draws on voices and experiences from northeast Syria.
