HELIN TEZCANLI
Journalist

ABOUT ME
I am a Broadcast Journalist, who has graduated from City, University of London. I am originally from Turkey, and I have a keen interest in radio, photography, and music.
​
I have a diverse and creative multi-media portfolio that has covered a range of topics, including current affairs, health and science, contemporary issues, literature, and much more. I regularly contribute to my blog and social media platforms.
​
I am very interested in the role that social media plays in the 21st century. It is a platform that both connects members of the public whilst also isolating them at the same time. I believe it is crucial to integrate people into the news-worthy events that are occurring around them, by giving them a chance to voice their concerns and take part in the storytelling, because if isolation from social media continues, distrust in media organisations and between people will also grow.
