Tuğçe Aytaş

Hi, I'm Tuğçe. A brand designer and full-stack developer. Under Thena Mars Society, I build brands, websites and mobile apps.

My favourite part of the job is merging two worlds: defining a brand's strategy and visual language, then turning it into a real working product. I build mobile apps with React Native, web platforms with Next.js, and add intelligence with AI integrations.

My journey started with degrees in advertising and digital game design. I've worked across very different worlds — from series production at Netflix to running our family restaurant, from being a sushi chef to founding an e-commerce brand. Today I bring that multidisciplinary experience together in design and software.

Outside of Work

I draw in Procreate and play a little cello. I've done sports all my life — I was a licensed badminton player as a kid, and I danced. I love tending to my plants and constantly adding new ones to my collection.
