A filmmaker focused on character-driven storytelling and socially conscious narratives

About

I am a graduate film and media student at Ibn Haldun Univeristy. I did my undergrad at Izmir Katip Çelebi University in Media and Communication. My filmmaking focuses on identity, social norms, human personalities and resistance through intimate sound design and deliberate visual composition. Alongside film, I work in photography, content writing and editing, where I develop visual rhythm, mood, and narrative structure across different media formats. I’m currently exploring my filming style through the use of artificial intelligence, working on 2 different projects.
