This is my story...

I design software

Web & mobile apps

Started a YC company

Been working at startups since 2007

I love visual design

It pays to sweat the details

Craft my own HTML/CSS

Started as a frontend developer

I use a lot of paper

Nothing's faster or more creative

I run usability tests

It's my favorite UX tool

I'm a night owl

insomnia = productivity

Born in Istanbul

Not Constantinople

Grew up in California

Skate, surf & BMX

I have a lovely wife

She's the nicest person I know

We have two tiny dogs

They're our furbabies

I love science

Studied neuroscience as an undergrad

Played soccer my whole life

Blew out my knee trying to go pro

I love to travel

And explore the planet
