ABOUT ME
I am a Turkish master architect and designer, currently living in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
In my 8 years experiences, I have designed numerous different kind of projects such as, mixed use building, high-rise building, recreational areas, university campus, dormitory, retail shops, municipality building, private luxury residential houses, summer houses, library, cafe, restaurant showrooms, police station, fire station..
During my career, I had a chance to experience different architectural culture, various local clients and local climate with architectural style, while handling projects in Turkey, Italia, US and recently UAE since I am eager to extend my vision globally.
I have worked one of the local architectural company, Imperium Group, as a Senior Architect in UAE. During this period, I managed my own projects, arranged meetings with clients and sub-consultants by managing our junior architect team. I was reporting my projects to our manager and our company's partners everyday. Our team was pretty big which consists of interior, landscape, 3d visualization teams and structural engineers. We as a team have always worked closely each other when designing and planning building from the beginning to finalizing.
In 2021, before moving to UAE, I have established my own business in Turkey. Meanwhile, I was working one of US company remotely. I had to find an opportunity to manage my own work, budget, relationship with clients and sub-consultants from design stage to final construction stage.
Before I established my own job, I used to work as a Senior Architect in one of the Turkish company in Turkey for 4 years where I was managing 6-7 architects in my team. I have experienced with all phases of design and construction.
I coordinated with clients and sub-consultants and I arranged a meeting with them in site or in the our office. I arranged site visits every construction period, one or twice a week. I was reporting projects and schedules to my company's partner everyday.
I have strong knowledge about building materials both interior and exterior of the building with aesthetic sensebilities.Besides, I can adapt the new environment easily.
I believe my communication skills with team members and clients are my strength. I am good team player with the ability to organize both own work and others.
I am good at problem solver, and create innovative ideas easily, in the short time. I am able to perform under pressure when deadline is approaching. I am motivator to my colleagues.
In terms of the programmes, I am able to use Archicad, Autocad, Revit, Sketchup, Lumion, Adobe programmes, Indesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Rhino, Grasshopper as an advanced level.
I would like to experience more diverse culture with varied of projects by extending my vision in international company.
