Fashion designer with nearly 20 years of experience, blending creative vision with strong communication skills. My work spans hotel uniforms, children’s collections, colorful patterned socks and underwear, Scandinavian womenswear, and digital art. I’ve designed and supervised production for brands like Mattel, Warner Bros., and DC Comics. I use CLO3D for 3D garment visualization, create detailed design specs, and manage end-to-end production in Turkey, offering a seamless bridge between design and manufacturing. I’m a fast learner who adapts easily to new environments and languages, always eager to explore new creative challenges.
