After graduating from Tarsus American Col- lege, I studied Textile Development and Marketing in a double degree program or- ganized by Istanbul Technical University and Fashion Institute of Technology.

I passed Uludağ University Faculty of Education Fine Arts Education Department in matriculation, but I remember me taking the matriculation for İstanbul İstasyon Art Academy of Fine Arts.

During my undergradu- ate studies, I was intro- duced to the weaving loom, and I started to weave alternative fabrics with alternative materials through intrinsic moti- vators. Defining the gap has always been my main goal, but, believe me, I still do not know why. In a way, I’m interpreting and narrating my feelings through the gap.

I also lived in Milan for two and a half years in Italy. In this process, I worked with the fa- mous fashion brand Vi- onnet Paris with Goga Ashkenazi as a Fashion Designer.

As you know, my design journey started in Vakko, one of Turkey’s biggest institution. I left from this institution where I worked for 16 years at the bottom, to build my own brand. Vakko is an insti- tution with very crystal dynamics and design concept is shaped on this.
