ABOUT ME

The rate of progress is so rapid that what one learns at school or university is always a bit out of date. 

Only a few people can keep up with the rapidly advancing frontier of knowledge, and they have to devote their whole time to it and specialize in a small area. The rest of the population has little idea of the advances that are being made
or the excitement they are generating.

A BRIEF HISTORY
OF MY LIFE

I am originally from Tekirdağ, Turkey but I have been living in Istanbul since 2011.

I studied Translation and Interpretation in English at the university, but I did not want to advance in that direction as a career. In 2012, I turned to digital publishing and thus took the first steps of my career today.

I worked as a content and traffic editor, social media content producer in some companies for a few years and took part in SEO projects. In addition to writing sectoral research and reports, I also had the opportunity to interview well-known names in the e-commerce and digital marketing sectors.

In 2014, I decided to move away from the private sector in order to run my own business. For the first time, at the end of 2014, I implemented the “Enstrüman Öğren” project, where I published instrument lessons online. I continued this project, which included nearly 100 video lessons, until 2016.

While the Enstrüman Öğren project was continuing, I started to provide digital marketing and web design services as a freelance in 2015.

I continued as a Freelancer between 2015 and October 2020, and then in October 2020, we started 360 Creative Agency IncreaWorks with my brother Serhat Oypan. Since then, I have been working as Managing Director at ICW.
