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.

2011 - Fashion Design Graduate
Even though I was in Science-Mathematics department in high school and planned to become an engineer, I realized that I could not do a job I did not like my whole life. I had a change of mind in my senior year in high school , and I chose Department of Fashion Design of Izmir University of Economics. I did not have any idea about fashion design before, I consulted famous designers. I proved them right at the end of 4 years with the contributions of my school. There were many opportunities that my school provided me with during the school period.
