Find my updated CV here.
I am a former student-athlete and a graduate of Washington State University. Prior to my student-athlete career, I played basketball competitively with Fenerbahçe SK and had the honor of representing my country on the court. After 14 years of playing basketball, I medically retired in 2022 and began focusing fully on my passion for design, continually developing my creative skills.

In May 2024, I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in Digital Technology and Culture, with a minor in Art, along with certificates in Graphic Design and Game Studies & Design.

During my final two years at WSU, my role as the Creative Assistant for the Women’s Basketball team helped me gain hands-on experience in sports marketing and design.

After graduation, I worked as an Assistant Marketing Executive at an international company based in Istanbul, managing social media accounts for Türkiye and creating multi-format content for different channels.

Alongside my professional role, I have also continued freelance design work, focusing on branding, information design, illustrations, motion graphics, social media, and other digital design projects

Beyond design, I am passionate about photography and travel. In my free time, you’ll often find me lost in any type of arts & crafts, curled up with a book, rewatching my favorite shows, playing with my cat Venus, or learning new languages—most recently, Japanese.
