I am a dual‑degree designer with a passion for textile and fashion. I studied at Bilgi University in Istanbul and pursued a dual diploma program with NABA in Milan, aiming to finish two BA degrees in Fashion Design. I love blending Turkish craftsmanship with Italian design sensibilities to create high‑end pieces that celebrate culture and style. I gained hands‑on experience in fast‑paced textile manufacture environments, contributed to showroom and fittings, and am expanding my skills in marketing and digital storytelling. I am fluent in Turkish and English with basic Italian, and I enjoy collaborating with diverse teams to bring creative concepts to life.
