About Me

Management student and an entrepreneur in the classical music industry!
I'm interested in Customer Experience Management, entrepreneurship, marketing, oenology and specialty coffee.

Being a flutist, I adore classical music and jazz. I love meeting new people and extending my network.

Travelling is what makes my life meaningful. I fuel up my energy by meeting new people. And I believe that discovery is the one notion that creates a meaning in our lives. This journey is all about the discovery of the self and the others.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite composer is J.S. Bach but I basically listen to any kind of classical music and jazz. There are also other types of music that I listened and still enjoying like alternative rock and indie.

Star Wars is my favorite movie of all but there are a couple of movies that I like the most such as Before Sunrise, 12 Angry Men, Le Roi Danse, etc. I am a big fan of HIMYM, Friends, Brooklyn 99 and Mozart in the Jungle.

I like reading about economics, marketing, music, sociology, and philosophy. But I prefer to read in any genre in order to have a wider sight upon life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I stayed in France for 15 days and visited Lyon, Strasbourg and Paris, having known no one just by myself. And the biggest adventure is the one I'm having right now ! I'll tell the details when I'm settled :)
-Update-
Settled in Paris... it's the biggest adventure of my life because settling in Paris is like one of the most difficult things since finding a house and every administrative stuff is like a horror movie ! :D
I am not coming from a French high school so I had big difficulties in the first year of university but I was able to manage my life.

I got into a comedy musical club and a classical orchestra where I am playing the flute. I got a job with a permanent contract. I founded a startup in the classical music field. And got accepted to a very selective education program in one of the best universities of France.

Anyways, so much to tell but not enough space so I'll be pleased to share my story when we meet !

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach with my little knowledge on classical music, music theory, oenology and jazz as well as some habits of French and Turkish culture. I'm eager to learn anything especially about music, wine and travelling 🤩

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can share our stories and I also am a good listener. I like to discuss serious subjects in any field that I am knowledgeable in. We can drink, talk and maybe make some music.
