TUĞÇE SABRİYE AYDIN

As a daughter of a farmer family in Antalya, Tuğçe grew up surrounded by greenery. When she first came to Istanbul for university, she was surprised by the sight of buildings stacked on top of each other. Fortunately, she found solace in the greenery at Istanbul University's Beyazıt Campus. During her university years, Tuğçe developed an interest in the strategic side of advertising, driven by her passion for reading and research.

Even before graduating from the Public Relations and Promotion Department, she gained experience by working with various brands in the banking, food and beverage, and automotive industries through internships at advertising agencies. She began her career at Alametifarika, working with brands such as Toyota, Lexus, Garanti BBVA, Bonus, Ulker, Pınar, Domino's, Falım, Lassa, Fuzul, and BIM.

Tuğçe appreciates the value of a single shot in analog photography, as opposed to taking thousands of identical photos with digital cameras or phones. Although finding 35mm film in Eminönü is challenging, she has a small collection. She believes that if she doesn't bring back a memory from a place, it feels like she hasn't visited at all.

Given the choice, she prefers to walk everywhere, especially if the route is pleasant.

While she doesn't play, she is an avid follower of tennis.
