2013 - Business Administration for Executives Graduate
I was born in 1976 in Eskişehir. I came to Izmir because I got into the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Dokuz Eylul University at the age of 18, and after graduation, I decided to continue my life in Izmir. Izmir, with its people and nature, is a city where I feel comfortable, where we live in peace with my family, and I hope it always stays like this.

2009 - English Translation and Interpreting Graduate
In my first year at Izmir University of Economics, I started to improve myself not only academically but also socially by taking advantage of the numerous opportunities that the school has offered. When I was working at the Student Affairs unit of the University, I visited high schools in different cities with our esteemed educators and represented our school. I added another language to my resume by improving my German education, which started in high school, at the University. I did volunteer work in well-known institutions such as Izmir Chamber of Commerce, International Cotton Advisory Committee, Aegean Exporters' Associations.

2012 - International Relations and European Union Graduate
When I first stepped into Izmir University of Economics in 2007 I said to myself “What am I doing here?” One of the main reasons for that was the fact that I was a professional football player at Manisaspor Club, then known as Vestel Manisaspor. I got transferred to Ispartaspor after an accident, and when I came back I took a dislike to football due to some events I witnessed. I always felt a little remorseful because of leaving football because I was going to have a totally different life. Izmir Economics was the newest of my new life…
