My Story
I 'm a +7 years experienced Senior Product Designer with a deep focus on fintech, banking, tourism, travel and the kind of digital experiences people rely on every day. Also genuinely Passionate about where design and AI intersect.
More than that, I'm a storyteller at heart, weaving narratives through my designs.
I started my career at OTI Global Technologies(Coral Travel Group, Odeon Software Technology), designing digital ecosystems for global travel brands.
Today I design at Commencis, working with some of Turkey's and the MENA region's largest financial institutions and their digital products used by millions.
