What exactly does a Finance & Accounting Specialist do at AdColony? What’s an average day like for you?

Volkan Biçer was a role model for me in the past, of course, and now I get help whenever I need it.

I spend a lot of time with my family and live away from the Istanbul traffic and crowds. This keeps my morale high.
