Here is my journey

SCROLL

My journey began in the middle school. While my peers spent their time playing computer games, I was laying the foundations for all the digital and physical tools I use today. Paper, pencils, wooden models... Architectural software, vector and pixel-based design programs... For many years, I have adopted these tools as a hobby and have continuously tried to create new crafts.

Years later, I came across "Product Design." In 2017, I started my studies in this field, where student-centered studio education offered invaluable experience. I knew I needed to improve, so I kept adding new tools to my repertoire and continued developing my eye for design.

During my second year of studying product design, I was introduced to UX/UI design. This early discovery ignited my passion and excitement for the field. My freelance work increased my enthusiasm for creating digital products. I focused on this field, conducted research, and improved my skills while studying.

I incorporated digital products into my school projects whenever possible. Each project aimed to enhance user experience both physically and digitally. I carried this approach into my graduation project. Before starting, I began working as a UX/UI designer at a consulting firm called UXServices. I managed both my graduation project and my work at the firm remotely. Handling multiple projects and products significantly boosted my professional growth.

My time at UXServices provided me training and mentoring in various areas. My team and I delivered training sessions - on user experience, design thinking, user research and more - to companies and individuals who purchased our services.

UXServices organized the UXIstanbul conference, featuring speakers from major companies such as Amazon, Google, and Microsoft. The conference was held in person prior to the pandemic and transitioned to an online format via Discord afterward. I played an active role in the preparation, planning, and execution processes.
