I am a self-taught photographer based in Frankfurt, Germany.

Born and raised in Turkey, in a country with constant political, social, and economic changes and issues, I have always wanted to understand the background of what was happening. I wanted to be part of the solution for humankind. So I studied Political Science and International Relations in Istanbul.

After several years of doing other things, I eventually discovered photography as a way of contributing to the good of humankind.

I see photography as a tool to explore different ways of seeing and understanding what is happening in the world. I focus on people, on ordinary things in life, and on stories that I can capture from a different perspective.
