“i thought i'd be a famous table tennis player. i had all the makings of one: the speed, the skills, the backspin-serve, and even the hair. the only thing standing between me and my dream was a table tennis license.”

 

this is the longest bio you’ll ever read in 20 seconds.

add a gold clio, a shorty, and three O-1 visas—i have been proudly stealing american jobs since 2012 from new york to los angeles.

and i'll keep hustling untill i make a difference. but before you say "aaaww..." i also want to write a superbowl ad, win some lions, and hang out with jon hamm along the way.

—and this is the shortest bio you'll ever read in 2 mins.

i thought i'd be a famous table tennis player. i had all the makings of one: the speed, the skills, the backspin-serve, and even the hair. the only thing standing between me and my dream was a table tennis license.

that summer, i was diagnosed with heart disease. my broken heart ended my career before it even started. 

now, i don't know what will happen. am i just going to drop dead anytime? 

but then, i had a revelation:

if I'm going to die, then i should do whatever the f@ck i want.

so the next morning i made a list. 

#1 on my list was asking out the prettiest girl in my school.

she said yes!

10 years later, i created a website called: dudethereisdeath.com to remind people that they will die one day, so they should live it up. it started with some friends and it grew to hundreds within a month. eventually, it went viral in turkey. 

shortly after, an ad agency wanted to buy it and this is how i met with my first creative director. 

one day at work i searched, "what's the best advertising school in the world?" and miami ad school popped up.

i hacked their website before they launched in turkey. my stunt won people’s attention.

i got a scholarship and they got the buzz. good deal.

the rest is history and most of it on this website.
