I’m Ömer, a political science researcher and documentary practitioner interested in democratic governance, environmental justice, and the ways communities shape policy from the ground up. I founded Nexus Point Doc, where I develop research-driven documentary projects. My most recent work — supported by the National Geographic Society and The Nature Conservancy — examines environmental inequality through a feminist political economy lens.
Academically, my work focuses on public administration, civic innovation, and the social implications of emerging technologies. As a Bevisioneer Fellow, I explore future-oriented approaches to community organizing and participatory governance. I also contribute analyses on politics, culture, and global issues for MEER, Vox Artistica, and Sense Of Cinema.
I’m joining the DEAL Community because I value its commitment to distributed, community-led decision making. I’m excited to learn from practitioners, exchange ideas, and contribute through my background in research, storytelling, and collaborative project work.
