Hello
I’m Oğulcan.
An engineer who aspires to be an artist.
My Journey
My journey started as a mechanical engineer. I liked my subject but I wanted to be more, wanted to do more. I traveled, I witnessed,I imagined. And I created. Just like an artist would do.
I grew this passion of building web apps. I taught myself how to code, how to design and how to build.
I learnt HTML, CSS, JS. Then backend, Django. And for reusability, React. They helped me actualize my thoughts. They were not the goal, they were my tools.
Web apps I did as a freelancer.
Social media posts, posters, flyers and all the visuals I created.
The companies I worked for around the world.

A Journal For
Pursuing Goals
Sometimes it's hard pursueing your dreams.
To make it easier, I created a journal called “Hedef Ajandası” (Goal Journal).
It’s an actual journal where you write your goals and the journal keeps track of the progress.
First you actualize your thoughts by writing them.
Then you write the smallest actions you can take towards your goals.
And hopefully you achieve your dreams.

Podcast Series
With My Friends
I had the privilege of having great friends. Friends whom I can talk for hours.
Then I said to myself: “I like to be in front of the camera, why don’t I start a Podcast series?”
And that’s how it started.
I learnt how to use cameras.
How to do editing.
And how to be myself.
