About

As CMO at Microsoft Türkiye, I shape how we bring the power of cloud, AI, Copilot, and security to life for organizations across the country. I bridge strategy, storytelling, and technology to help enterprises and the public sector accelerate digital transformation, driving measurable impact in growth, innovation, and resilience. Over the past decade, I’ve grown as a marketer across regional and cross-market leadership roles, building programs and stories that connect brands with people and help businesses transform. I hold degrees in both Business and Psychology, which give me a unique perspective on how people and organizations adapt to change. I combine that foundation with a love for storytelling and a curious mindset that keeps me learning, whether through people, cultures, or wine (WSET Level 2).
