I graduated from Marmara University with a bachelor’s degree in Economics in 2006 and have a master’s degree in Msc Management at Southampton University in the UK right after my graduation. I have been in the steel industry since 2008. I cover the longs products in Turkey both internally and externally at SteelOrbis headquarter.
