Biography
Gille was born in Sweden, her mother is Swedish while her father is Kurdish, but she was mostly raised in foster care. She graduated with a degree in medicine and worked as a nurse in a hospital and an assisted living facility.

She has been active in politics since 2014. She has described honour violence and forced marriages as issues which inspired her to take an interest in becoming a politician, having relatives who were subjected to both and has called for both practices to be outlawed in Sweden.

In parliament, she has served on the Committee on Foreign Affairs and Committee on Education. She was reelected during the 2022 Swedish general election but for the Dalarna county constituency.
