About

I am a Graphic Designer from Turkey who just finished her Graphic Communication Masters at Nottingham Trent University. By using graphic design, illustration and animation in my practice I believe I can evoke emotions and engage with people. With my previous experience as a graphic designer in a game agency, I’m always excited to develop my practice and explore more playful approaches within the design industry!
