I graduated from Department of International Trade and Finance in 2014, and I started my career life in the logistics sector the same year in the light of the quality education I received during my university years. After working in two different logistics companies, I worked for AKG Group / Çimstone as Export Manager for a long time. I have successfully continued my business life in different sectors and constantly improved myself, and I switched to the health sector as a manager in 2020. Since I am a disciplined, hardworking and risk-taking person who can adapt to constantly evolving and changing conditions, I believe that the decisions I made throughout my career support my success. I am currently working as an General Manager in a highly successful and global dental hospital. I can say that the knowledge and the strong vision I gained during my studies at Izmir University of Economics affected my career life very well. I am always proud to be an IUE graduate.
