About

The third generation of a family craft.

A style guide who builds personal brands. A cutter. A presenter.

I was born in Karşıyaka, İzmir.

After graduating from İzmir Atatürk High School, I completed a degree in Civil Engineering at Uludağ University. In 1990 I joined the family business.

I have 19 years of experience in menswear retail and 7 years in international client representation. In 2008 I trained as a style guide abroad. Since 2010 I have been designing wardrobes the bespoke way and managing personal brands.

Combining field experience with theory, I give seminars on personal branding to corporations.

TV / Event presenter

Stage, camera and speech.

I am a professional presenter and TV host. After a modelling career I began presenting on local channels in İzmir. My four years presenting programmes for TRT Belgesel through independent production companies marked my professional step. I continue to host festivals and special events.
