I am a UX/UI designer from Istanbul and based in Berlin since 2015. I design and deliver websites, corporate branding, and online-offline illustrations mainly infographics, and maps. I facilitate workshops and train different groups of people in UX/UI design, social media marketing, and organizational structures.
With a background in culture management, public art, and neighborhood, I have gained significant work experience in civic and cultural organizations and academia. Having worked in diverse environments helps me now, especially when dealing with diverse stakeholders.
I have an aptitude for setting solid goals and quickly getting familiar with new challenges. I truly enjoy working with creative people, sharing ideas, and getting inspired by each other which in my experience can deliver outstanding results.
