I graduated from Department of Computer Engineering in 2009. After graduation, I started my career at Abdi İbrahim pharmaceutical company. After working here for 2 years, I started working as a manager at Vatan Bilgisayar. I continued my career as a Store Manager at Vatan Bilgisayar for 7 years. I accepted a job offer in October 2021 and started my new job as a senior manager at Sonçağ Palet, a family company founded in 1940. I was able to generate different ideas in business life, especially thanks to the analytical mindset I had gained during my university education. This has been the biggest factor in my rapid rise in my career. I am still meeting with my graduate friends working in different sectors, which makes me happy, frankly. I am so glad to have studied at Izmir University of Economics.

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.

It seems that my story started with the tape measure that my teacher hung around my neck while going to primary school. My friends at school representing While my classmates were selected as engineers, doctors or teachers for a school play I cried for being selected a tailor. Even if I was angry with my teacher for this choice that day, the first step of the profession I was going to do years later was taken in those years.

2014 - Public Relations and Advertising Graduate
Life at university is nothing compared to high school or anything else. When I chose Izmir University of Economics in 2009, I asked myself if I made the right decision. 5 years were ahead of me to see if I made the right decision or not. I’ve always tried my best at Izmir University of Economics and became a successful student. I did not qualify for any scholarships when I first enrolled at school but my hard work paid off and I qualified for 50% merit scholarship. In addition to courses in Public Relations and Advertising, I’ve taken many other electives from variety of fields including Business and Software Engineering.
