About Me

I’ve graduated from the Business Administration department of Karabuk University in 2019.
During my university life I was a member of MUSIAD (Independent Industrialists' and Businessmen's Association), I organized a project with the collaboration of MUSIAD and Altınsafran (Golden Saffron) association which is named as "Young Trade Bridge". The aim of the project is to bring international students and local businessmen together to improve the international trade of their respective native countries. Now International students have begun to marketing and exporting local businessman's products and services at the same time they are importing to Turkey their own country's products. Therefore we are opening up the local companies to the world and helping students to get experience in international trading. By consulting local companies and international students I gained experience in the area of consulting.
Also, I started a startup project “Bilim Space”. It’s a project with the main idea to teach English, Russian, French and Arabic languages with the help of qualified teaching staff. By giving different kinds of tasks to the team members I learned how to manage people, how to organize events and I improved my communication, marketing, and selling skills.
While being in China, my brother and I opened a Gift shop store, which was located in a small city called Cholpon-Ata in Kyrgyzstan. We were selling the products both via social platforms and the store. My role in this business was to import products from China, deal with marketing, advertisement and sales management.
In addition to my experience, my friends and I founded a company that addressed the issues foreigners faced in Kyrgyzstan. We offered “all in one” service to them, where we included apartment hunting, moving and relocation services, paying for utilities, arranging trips to rural areas of Kyrgyzstan, translation services, grocery delivery, etc.
By doing all these, I met different people with different cultures and different points of view. I got experience in international trading, logistics, marketing, managing, and strategic thinking. Moreover to do all these things I learned website building, film making, logo designing, and office programs.
