First-generation Turkish American entrepreneur and executive with a passion for technology, design, and building meaningful consumer experiences. I immigrated to the United States at the age of six, and from a young age, I was driven by curiosity—particularly about how things worked. I spent much of my early years disassembling electronics (not always successfully reassembling them), which sparked a lifelong interest in tech and problem-solving.
Throughout high school, I explored a wide range of interests—from soccer and snowboarding to graphic design, tennis, and swimming. It was during this time that I realized my true strength wasn’t in fixing computers, but in using them creatively and strategically. That insight led me to pursue a career that integrates technology and business.
I began my college education at Bergen Community College, focusing on Business Management. I later transferred to Montclair State University, where I earned a degree in Business Management Information Systems (MIS), graduating Magna Cum Laude in 2018.
Today, I serve as the Chief Operating Officer of Elegant Comfort, a leading name in affordable luxury bedding and home products. In this role, I’ve helped expand our global reach.
My work spans operations, technology, product development, and brand strategy—allowing me to stay engaged with what I enjoy most: solving problems, creating value, and building businesses that make people’s lives more comfortable.
Outside of my professional life, I enjoy spending time with my family, continuing to pursue hobbies I’ve developed over the years, and taking motorcycle tours with my brothers. I value balance, creativity, and staying curious—principles that continue to guide my journey both personally and professionally.
