Education

From Sakarya
to Koç.

Honestly: I was not a student who cared much about school; I only followed the classes I loved. But school gave me things more lasting than grades: thirty-year friendships, the problems I wrote down in a notebook, and an MBA I returned for years later — this time for the classes I needed.

At university I first studied Tourism and Hotel Management; after the second year I switched to Business Administration.
