About

I am a Harvard Law School LL.M. graduate and founder of Avokie, building the infrastructure layer for legal work distribution in regulated markets. Most legal tech focuses on tools. The real problem is distribution — how the right legal work reaches the right lawyer under strict regulatory constraints. That’s what we are solving. At Avokie, we are designing a curated, data-driven system that creates trust, transparency, and efficient matching without relying on advertising or traditional marketplace dynamics. We’ve already seen strong early demand and are now focused on scaling this model across Turkey and Europe. I believe the next generation of legal tech will not just optimize legal work — it will redefine how it is distributed.

  • World Traveller at Self-employed
    Jun 2009 - May 2025 · 16 yrs

    World traveler for 15 years — professionally exploring cities, airports, cultures, ideas, and the occasional questionable life decision. Collected perspectives across countries, learned how the world works (and sometimes doesn’t), mastered the art of surviving long layovers, and accidentally gained an advanced degree in people, systems, and chaos. Frequent flyer miles: impressive. Linear career path: debatable.
