I am a multidisciplinary analyst with a background in architecture and a growing specialization in data-driven business strategy. My career began in the design of physical systems; spaces, cities, environments, but along the way, I became increasingly drawn to how decisions were made behind the scenes.

After earning my bachelor's degree in architecture, I pursued an M.Sc. in Management at the Technical University of Munich. There, I developed an interest in digital services, strategic operations, and applied analytics. I’ve since contributed to product strategy and cost optimization projects at the BMW Group as well as worked on process and performance reporting, and internal consulting initiatives at Allianz Services.

Along the way, I’ve also developed a strong ability to visually communicate complex ideas, whether in stakeholder presentations, dashboards, or product documentation. My background in design helps me turn abstract insights into accessible narratives that support better decision-making and alignment across teams.

I enjoy helping organizations understand where value is created and how to improve it. My current work focuses on the intersection of data, operations, and digital transformation, particularly in complex, large and layered corporate environments. I am especially interested in how organizations use data to navigate pricing, vendor performance, and service innovation.

Originally from Turkey, I am currently based in Munich, Germany.
