About
Web Developer
As a full-stack developer and multimedia artist, i am constantly seeking out new and creative projects that allow me to push the boundaries of what is possible.
Hey there! 👋 A little bit about me: I was born and raised in Ankara, Turkey 🇹🇷, later residing briefly in Istanbul. Eventually, I moved to Montreal, Canada 🍁 for my bachelor's in Computer Science 💻. While studying, I discovered my knack for design and drawing 🎨, leading me to the creative realm of web development. After graduation, I self-taught React and began freelancing as a front-end developer, collaborating with diverse clients on unique projects. Seeking growth, I landed a fulfilling full-time remote job in Toronto 🏙️, my newfound home.
Beyond coding, I'm passionate about projection arts and animations 🎬. I've dedicated time to mastering software like Touch Designer and Blender, aspiring to collaborate with DJs on visuals 🎧. Explore more in the Projects section below. 🚀
