About

During the past decade, I have worked for outstanding product and advertising firms such as Tesla Inc. and TBWA Istanbul. I held full responsibility for worldwide brands, including BMW, Mini, Sony, Pepsico, BNP Paribas TEB, Danone, Häagen-Dazs, and Aquafresh. My work covers a broad range of mediums, including human interaction projects, web & mobile applications, and global advertising campaigns as a Creative Director & Product Designer. Among many accolades I've received, the “Young Designer of the Year” award from The Professional Association of Turkish Graphic Designers (GMK) in 2009 is the one of which I’m most proud. Today, I’m continuing my design career in California.
