I started my undergraduate education at Izmir University of Economics, Department of Business Administration in 2005. I took my first step into the profession of Independent Accountant and Financial Advisor, which was my career goal in high school. The education I received at my university has made a great contribution to my life both academically and socially. Especially thanks to the foreign language education I received during my university years, I started to work as an Accounting Officer in the German based Netzsch company in 2013. I got my Public Accountant license in 2014. Currently I continue my professional life as the Chief Financial Officer at Netzsch Makine San. ve Tic. Ltd. Şti.

2011 - Media and Communication Graduate
It feels like yesterday the first time I entered the University. All that excitement, worry, curiosity… A school that intersects different cultures and embraces them all. I graduated from Department of Media and Communication Systems, Faculty of Communication in 2011. I had the opportunity to perform an internship at DHA and Izmir Chamber of Commerce because of my experience in personal development, practical assignments, and presentations, as well as my active involvement in social responsibility projects, in addition to theoretical knowledge I learned throughout my education. At the same time, it was a great advantage for me that language of instruction was English and the opportunity to choose a second foreign language.
