I graduated from Bilkent University Faculty of Law in Ankara, Turkey in 2016, where I studied with a full scholarship because I successfully completed the IGCSE (Cambridge International Examinations) program between 2008-2010 and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program between 2010-2012 in high school. While I was in law school (2012-2016), I worked as a Columnist in the GazeteBilkent sports department, as a News Editor at NFLTR, and as a Sports Reporter for BilkentNews. After graduation I moved to İstanbul and enrolled in the Istanbul Bar Association in 2017.

Later I graduated from Kadir Has University Sports Law and Management Certificate Program (2014-2015) and Bilgi University Competition Law Certificate Program (2016-2017). In September 2022, I started doing my master’s degree in Sports Sciences at Fenerbahçe University and I continue my studies at Fenerbahçe University as an MSc candidate.

After working as an Associate in Legal500 Law Firms in Turkey and as a Legal Counsel in corporate companies, I started my law firm (STNZ LEGAL) in İstanbul in July 2020. In my law firm, I provide legal consultancy and litigation services to national and international clients in Business Law, Immigration Law, and Sports Law.

I worked as a Representative/Auditor at the Turkish Basketball Federation between November 2023 and March 2024 where I inspected the basketball games, venues, and spectators before, during, and after the game in accordance with TBF legislation, decisions, regulations, and practices.

I have been working as one of the members of the WISLaw Events Committee since October 2023 to organize online and face-to-face events for members and non-members to achieve our missions as WISLaw.

I am in the management of a women's football team in Antalya since January 2024, I am actively working as a manager in their sponsorship department. This is a new area for me that is why I am actively learning every day about the dynamics in women's football in Turkey and sports sponsorship.

I have been volunteering for Kızlar Sahada (Girls on the Pitch: An organization working to support women, girls, and youth in football in Turkey) since the beginning of 2021. Between March 2021-March 2022 I worked as an Instructor for the online courses on "Sustainability in Sports" given to female football players in Turkey in Kotex - Kızlar Sahada Athlete Development Program. After that, I continued to volunteer for many Kızlar Sahada Projects. In February 2023, I became the President of the Supervisory Board of an NGO called GESGED. (GESGED is a partner association of Kızlar Sahada). In 2023, GESGED built a football pitch for the use of children, youth, and women in Şanlıurfa together with Ruffles, Kızlar Sahada and Şanlıurfa Municipality. In 2024, GESGED Association also founded a sports club in Turkey, and I am still working as a Board Member of this sports club.
