Hi there, I am Deniz!

I am from Turkey, a place rich in culture and history. My profound love for wildlife prompted me to take a bold step – relocating to Canada for my undergraduate studies, initially in Economics and later in Psychology. Today, I'm fortunate to call the stunning Bay Area my home.

My passion for learning has taken me on a fascinating journey through various fields, from finance and consulting to research and, most recently, user experience.

With a self-taught foundation in visual design and hands-on experience in project management, finance, and research, I'm wholeheartedly pursuing opportunities to further my career as a UX Designer.

Through my work, I aim to contribute by crafting solutions that not only serve a purpose but are also engaging and intuitively designed, ultimately enriching the lives of individuals.

My recent participation in the General Assembly's Immersive Apprenticeship was a truly invaluable experience, involving over 500 hours of hands-on design work. It allowed me to stay closely connected with the ever-evolving industry landscape, leaving me confident and genuinely excited about the opportunities ahead.
