2012 - Visual Communication Design Graduate
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.

2015 - Department of Media and Communications Graduate
“The class newspaper we published in elementary school and the small plays I wrote and staged were my first steps toward an interest in the world of communication. This curiosity gradually turned into a passion and led me to the Department of Media and Communication at Izmir University of Economics. Thanks to the strong academic staff and modern studio facilities, my university years became one of the most valuable periods that shaped my career.
