About
I am a dedicated artist and entrepreneur with a profound passion for graphic design and illustration. Originally from Turkey, I embarked on a journey to the United States in 2010, leaving behind a career in public administration and economics to follow my heart's calling in creativity.
My creative journey has been a continuous learning experience. I studied graphic design at UC Berkeley Extension and earned a Master's in Graphic Design from the Academy of Art San Francisco. After graduating, I had the honor of teaching Illustration and Typography at UC Berkeley Extension while gaining valuable insights from my experiences in various design agencies as a freelance graphic designer.
My entrepreneurial spirit led me to establish my own business, where I've had the privilege of merging my graphic design skills, love for illustration, and marketing insights. This unique blend has resonated with both local and international audiences.
I've been fortunate to collaborate with some remarkable brands and companies, including Nooworks Company, WGAC, San Francisco Museum of Art, Boochcraft, Hedley & Bennett, and Equator Coffees, among others. In 2023,
I was honored to receive the first prize in the fabric category at the EDIDA (Elle Decor International Design Awards), an acknowledgment that touched me deeply.
My mission is simple: to inspire creativity and make a positive impact on the world through design. I'm here to bring unique visions to life and contribute to creative projects, whether they are large or small.
I'm always eager to explore new creative possibilities and collaborate with individuals and organizations that appreciate the beauty of artistic expression. Please feel free to reach out if you have a project or idea where my skills could make a difference. Let's embark on a creative journey together.
