Senior Product Designer in İstanbul, He/Him

About

With a broad knowledge and expertise, I have a successful track record of designing wide-ranging products, including web/mobile apps, marketing materials and landing pages.

I have driven and completed a variety of people-centred and engaging product design, graphic design and UX design projects in multiple industries such as virtual bet, fintech, telecom, game, banking, e-commerce, production, entertainment and media. Thanks to my in-depth understanding of UI/UX best practices and good knowledge of web technologies, I am able to balance many simultaneous projects of varying complexity in a fast-paced and deadline-driven tech environment. Additionally, having a master’s degree in Graphic Design and a bachelor’s in Computer Technology and Information Systems also supports my hands-on experience.

Besides, having served in the industry over the years, I am accustomed to the rigours of dynamic tech environments, requiring agility, dedication, critical thinking and strong communication skills. I also enjoy collaborating with other multi-disciplinarily diverse teams.

As a user-oriented and creative product designer, I always do my best to ensure on-time and high-quality project delivery by utilising my extensive project management capability and innovative problem-solving skills. You may find my previous and recent projects in the work experience section.
