ABOUT ME
Designer | Motion & Animation
In 2025 I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Communication and Design from Bilkent University and currently work on visual and video production in a mobile game company, Panteon. My primary interests are animation, character design, storytelling, and visual development, supported by hands-on experience in motion graphics, video editing, and design. I aim to grow within the animation and storytelling field while building on my experience in creative production for games.
