About

Professional summary

I am a Gaming Operations, Player Support, and Turkish Localization specialist with extensive experience supporting live mobile games across strategy, survival, simulation, and battle titles.

I resolve high-volume, complex player cases across in-game, email, social media, and ticketing channels. I have consistently handled more than 180 tickets per day while maintaining strong service quality, SLA performance, CSAT, and VIP satisfaction.

I specialize in server-side log auditing, asset recovery, billing verification, account security, anti-fraud screening, and fair-play enforcement. My work includes investigating item-loss reports, payment disputes, multi-account activity, and chat-policy violations.

I bring strong Turkish localization and cultural community-management expertise. I translate, proofread, adapt, and quality-check in-game content, store messaging, announcements, and regional campaigns for Turkish-speaking players.

I have experience recruiting, evaluating, onboarding, and mentoring support and moderation personnel. I work effectively with development, QA, marketing, community, and live-operations teams to escalate issues and improve player experiences.

I am motivated by player retention, transparent support, culturally relevant communication, and scalable operational processes for global game communities.
