What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build user-centered web or mobile products where I can own research, strategy, UI/UX, and design-to-development collaboration while helping teams turn complex problems into clear experiences.

I co-founded Cinepals and led its pivot into a cinematic-identity social network, taking the product from concept to live App Store and Google Play releases with 400+ active users.

I design product strategy, research, journeys, design systems, high-fidelity interfaces, and prototypes. At Divizyon and Ming Teknoloji, I turned complex B2B and public-platform requirements into accessible, developer-ready web and mobile experiences.

I also bridge design and engineering through React Native and frontend knowledge, protecting product quality through handoff and build cycles. Through my independent studio, I’ve created interactive 3D WebGL interfaces for dexgame.io and client projects.
