My Story

My professional journey has spanned nearly three decades, with significant contributions in global locations including Atlanta, New York City, and Istanbul, Turkiye, before I established my consultancy in Columbus, Ohio.

The turning point that defined my current focus started during my time working for a global consulting firm in Istanbul. I experienced increasing dissatisfaction with the gap between my personal values and the nature of my projects. This period of reflection, often occurring during my evening commute on the metrobüs route 559C, led me to seek a major professional shift towards work that was not only profitable but also meaningful and aligned with my ideals.

This mission inspired the founding of Five59 Labs, a tech design firm dedicated to storytelling for progressive brands. Our approach is underpinned by a belief in the power of media and technology as tools for good. I guide clients towards achieving business objectives while simultaneously committing to sustainable practices and contributing to positive societal and environmental outcomes.
