In 2012, I graduated from Izmir University of Economics-Department of Visual Communication Design with full scholarship and as the top student of the department. Thanks to courses such as applied workshops, we had the chance to visit many advertising agencies and production companies in Istanbul. In this way, the process of finding a job after graduation by establishing a business network became much more efficient. I started working as a field assistant and brand manager at Pozitif Music with the Rock'n Coke festival in 2011. I continued to work here as a freelance until 2015. As of 2012, I started to work as an art director in international advertising agencies (such as 4129Grey, Güzel Sanatlar Saatchi & Saatchi). I was promoted to Senior Art Director in a short time in the advertising industry, which I started as Junior Art Director.
