What I'm looking for

I am seeking creative roles in animation or illustration where I can produce character animations, visual assets, and story-driven content within a collaborative team that values learning and artistic growth.

I am a dedicated cartoon and animation artist who blends imagination with disciplined craft to produce illustrations, animations and visual identities. I trained at Istanbul Aydın University on a full scholarship in Cartoon and Animation and continue studies in Art History, which enrich my visual storytelling.

I bring hands-on production experience from roles in marketing and customer-facing positions where I created logos, animated and still social posts, and handled graphic tasks while supporting customer identification and satisfaction.

My technical toolkit includes Adobe Photoshop, After Effects, Premiere, Audition, Clip Studio Paint, Autodesk Maya, Unity and Adobe Flash, and I apply these to character animation, frame-by-frame work, compositing, 3D modeling and game-design prototyping.

I am curious about Far Eastern visual culture, self-taught in Japanese, conversational in English and learning Chinese, and I aim to contribute creative energy and reliable production skills to teams that value visual storytelling and iterative learning.
