My UX career started in the finance/banking area. I worked as a junior UX designer at Akbank, one of Turkey's biggest banks. After that, I worked as a senior UX designer with development teams at Garanti BBVA Technology for three years. As a designer, I created experiences and user scenarios on various modules for internal and external platforms. And also I led and conducted user research on projects. During Garanti Technology years, I was selected as an instructor for BBVA Design Ambassador Program which aims to spread the Design Thinking approach in the company. And, I began to conduct Design Thinking workshops in the company and voluntary activities. After finance experiences, I decided to try new business areas and worked as a senior user experience designer with development teams at GE Aviation for almost 2 years. Cisco - Webex Events was the latest great place I worked for three years to develop my product design skills in start-up culture.
Now, I continue my work as a user experience consultant. Besides, I am a visiting lecturer at Kadir Has University for usability and principles.
I love sharing my knowledge and think it is the best way to continue my improvement. My article pieces in Turkish and English are on my Medium page.
