Hi again, I'm Selin

I’m a passionate Product Designer with a unique journey from law to design.

I was born in Germany, when I was two, my family and I moved to Turkey. Growing up in a household with two machine engineer parents, I was surrounded by a world of numbers and logic, which pointed towards a future in engineering. But I had other ideas. As a child, I was captivated by solving mysteries, uncovering secrets, and dreamed of becoming a detective or secret agent.

Life, however, had different plans. I ended up studying law, and for three years, I practiced as a lawyer. During this time, I quickly realized that while law helped me develop a keen analytical mindset, my true passion was elsewhere—designing meaningful solutions that impact people’s lives.

Determined to follow my passion, I made a life-changing decision. For six to eight months, I worked tirelessly, teaching myself the ins and outs of product design. I shared this journey on Medium.

Today, I'm a product designer at Storyly for over 3 years.

With several years of experience, I absolutely love designing innovative solutions that not only solve complex problems but also bring joy to users. Creating designs that make people’s lives better. Loves to learn and write about smart ways to solve tough problems while sprinkling joy into users’ experiences.

If I'm not in the design mode, you’ll catch me out on the tennis court! Music also plays a big role in my life—I enjoy discovering new sounds and rhythms that inspire my creativity.

I love spending time with friends and exploring new places, even though I haven’t traveled much yet. One of my biggest dreams is to travel abroad, meet new people, and experience different cultures. There’s something magical about connecting with others from different walks of life, and I look forward to those adventures in the future.
