I grew up in a modest family in Bursa, Turkey. I met life away from home when I studied to be

a technical teacher at Ankara Gazi University. Then going farther, I had his master's degree at

Tokyo Gakugei University on Educational Technology. With focus on his technical side, I started to

work for Toyota at the project stage of the Adapazarı factory in Turkey. I worked in the field of

quality at Toyota in Turkey, Japan and Belgium. I consider the experiences I had by growing up

with my teammates as my biggest achievement.

On top of my quality engineering and management experience, I worked in the audio-visual field

voluteerly in the last years. These included newspaper column writing, interviews, film and video

production. In addition, I participated in activities to reinforce Turkey-EU relations and volunteer

activities for immigrants in Belgium. My master's degree at the Luca School of Art in Brussels

marked the beginning of a second life for me.

My hobbies are reading books, photography, music and especially walking. I find solitude in

walking; feeling healthy in every sense which also helps his creative side.
