About Hanim

You are probably on this page because you want to learn more about me. But before I hit you with all the accomplishments, it's important to me that you know that the success you see now is decades in the making. Change doesn’t always come quickly, but change is possible.

I'm not going to lie, changing my life wasn't glamorous. 

It was grueling. 

At the age of 24, just weeks after I got my degree,
I started my first Tech company with my sister and
brother-in-law.
 
In those years, I went from sleeping in a 2x2m room with
NO windows, NO experience, NO MONEY and NO network to living in a breathtaking,
luxury apartment overlooking the Bosporus.

To being chauffeur driven and traveling on private planes

I was 32 years and I had it all but it seemed as if it was still not enough. I did not feel satisfied.

And so, I made my first big pivot and career change.

I left everything behind and went back to school, doing a post graduate Fashion degree in Paris. The director (who to this day is still my mentor) made an introduction and I got a job with Karl Lagerfeld. From there my career in Fashion kicked off and I have never looked back.

A few years later, I brought the two worlds together and started an e-commerce business in China. Once an entrepreneur, always an entrepreneur. I also founded a charity in Africa and a non-profit organisation Women In Fashion Global.

For the past decade, I decided to give back and support founders. My passion is helping female founders or professionals, Helping them to grow their business or career. I do this as an investor, board advisor and mentor.

I know first hand the curve balls and the momentum makers, having learned from my own mistakes, my own business and career paths and  my own experiences.
 
I know what it takes to start, grow and sell a company or build a successful career.

Today, my purpose is to take all my lessons. My research, my methods, techniques and proven strategies, and show you exactly how you too, can have the life of your dreams…faster and easier than you ever thought possible.

I hope I can be of service to you.

Are you interested or are you committed?


With Love, Hanim

Books

From Industry Entry to Strategic Scale

I wrote 10 Successful Steps Into Fashion as a practical blueprint for navigating competitive industries with structure and commercial discipline. It is not simply about fashion. It is about positioning, resilience, and long-term thinking.
 
Many of the frameworks I use today in boardrooms and capital conversations have their roots in the principles outlined in this book.
