About Me




Hello,

I was born in Ankara in 1994 and grew up in a vibrant and creative environment. Child of artist parents who owned a Kid’s Publishing House in Turkey. From an early age, I found inspiration in my mother’s storytelling and my father’s illustrations, which ignited my own artistic passion. Motivated to further cultivate my creative skills, I pursued higher education in Visual Communication Design. Upon completing my studies, I eagerly joined my family’s publishing business, for its expansion and connecting with a broader audience.

Driven by curiosity, I ventured into advertising in Prague, working as an Art Director for five years. Although I enjoyed crafting visual narratives, I felt a yearning for something more. This led me to discover my passion for game development. Creating two mobile games from scratch, I found myself in the world of game design, exploring new avenues for artistic expression. Later on this experience helped me to work in DDB FTW Worldwide, biggest esports and gaming network agency as Senior Art director for 2 years.

To this day, I continue to engage in various creative fields such as painting, printing, drawing, and animating. 

If you have a project that requires artistic collaboration and a fresh perspective, I would be happy to join forces and bring your vision to life.
