About
I was born in Istanbul, Turkey, on a hot summer day. My father always wanted me to become a lawyer, I ended up studying Graphic & Design and became an Art Director instead.
For the past 15 years I’ve been working in some of the world's well-known network agencies, concepting ideas and making things look good.
During this time I was fortunate enough to work on a massive range of brands both local and international. Over the years my work has been awarded at Cannes Lions, D&AD, One Show, Golden Drum, New York Festivals, ADC, Effie, Epica, Eurobest and local advertising award shows.
One day I had a call from Berlin and said “Ja! Warum nicht?”.
I’m currently working at adam&eve Berlin.
