Product Executive. Founder. Engineer.

15+ years building products across mobile gaming, wearable hardware, VR, fintech, and telecom. Most recently CPO at MegaFortuna (Richie Games), where I built the product organization from zero. Shipped to 50+ countries in its own founder journey. Now focused on AI-driven product strategy at scale.

I have a background in MSc in Electronic Engineering, with a Finance degree, executive education at Wharton and Darden, and 15 years of building digital & physical products in mobile, gaming, VR, and tech overall, from Istanbul to global markets.

Having lived, worked, and traveled across 30+ countries, I approach products and teams with a global operating mode.

I've been a CPO and a founder. I've managed teams, supply chains, and roadmaps. I've built for gamers, VR enthusiasts, mobile players, and payment systems with technically grounded decisions, commercially clear thinking, and products that actually ship.

Right now, I'm focused on AI product strategy — building the technical depth and public thinking that serious AI product leadership requires.
