She taught literature and the society's Iradi evening classes (see Iradi language revival).^[1]

Death

She was taken in the January arrests and shot with six others at the Talas building of the interior ministry of the Socialist Republic of Irad. The SRI said they had been "shot while escaping"; a commission of the Territorial Legislature found in 2002 that it was an execution. Her name heads the seven on the plaque at the building.^[1]
