CIAO, I’m Mergy.
I’m originally from Istanbul and have been based in Milan since 2016. Trained as an engineer, my career naturally evolved into marketing, strategy, and creative leadership, where structure, curiosity, and people intersect.
I learn by doing, ask a lot of questions, and enjoy bringing clarity to complex environments. I’m most comfortable when things are taking shape, when ideas are still being refined, and when there’s room to think, test, and adapt.
Enough about work.
I’m unexpectedly good at table football, endlessly curious about board sports (very much a beginner, despite the competitive spirit), and I dance more than I plan to. I tend to overthink, empathize deeply, and collect people’s stories. That’s probably why storytelling has always felt like the most natural part of what I do.

“I had the pleasure of working with Mercan a couple of years ago, when she was Account Supervisor. What stood out immediately was her ability to build and nurture excellent client relationships — professional, authentic, and always carried with a natural ease that made every interaction positive.
Equally impressive was the way she supported her team: collaborative, approachable, and consistently ready to step in when needed. She had full command of complex, multi-channel projects, managing them with rigor and clarity while ensuring smooth delivery across all touchpoints.
Beyond being a highly skilled account and project manager, Mercan also proved to be an outstanding strategist, with a sharp focus on the digital space. Her trilingual skills were an additional asset, allowing her to navigate seamlessly across clients and teams in different projects.
I would strongly recommend Mercan to any organization looking for someone who combines client excellence, team leadership, strategic acumen, and an international mindset in one profile.”
