He was born on 1 August 2003 in IST/Şişli. Growing up in a city where night and day blend together and everything is in stark contrast to one another must have greatly developed his observational skills; images, light and storytelling became central to his life. His interest in cinema began in childhood with the animated films his family showed him, which were his first real cinema experience; animation became a new lifeblood flowing through his veins. At the ages of 9 and 10, he appeared as an extra in various TV series and later received short-term theatre training at the Nejat Uygur Stage. He completed his secondary education at the Zeytinburnu Information Technology Department. He took a break before starting his university education.
He has been working in the field of video and photography for almost ten years. His passion for the camera, lighting, angles, and visual aesthetics has turned into a clear professional goal: cinematography.
He is currently working as an assistant director and E.P. at GAFG Studio, an independent production collective. He develops his own projects through Focus Search Films. In partnership with PaşaBoyz Entertainment, he produces videos such as music videos and concerts. He also works as a camera assistant on independent projects. As someone with a deep interest in cinema, he is also developing his skills in colour grading and documentary filmmaking.
