Proudly originating from Mersin, Turkey, I've embraced the spirit of a global citizen. My journey led me to reside in Dublin, Ireland, for five years, followed by a year in Tallinn, Estonia. Currently, I am living in Helsinki, Finland.
I serve as a Managing Director at Grow in EMEA and follow startup deals to invest and collaborate.

About
Well, there were many mistakes on my path. I didn't know how to create a company, manage people, or measure metrics to grow. All this is summed up in the time I have wasted but learned. Now, I am sharing what I learned from the ups and downs of life with the curious ones, and still learning from them. You can check some content about my skills and vision here.
Reputable Investments
I was lucky enough to convince great founders on joining their journeys. Mostly, I'm a quiet name on the cap tables and cannot take credits. All success is squarely due to their hard work and vision.
