Hello!

My name is Murad and I write about the video games industry, my work as a producer, insights for personal and professional growth, and flavor it with doggo pictures and memes!

My professional journey started when I graduated from university with a master's degree in Law and went to a federal court to work first as a court secretary and then as a judge's assistant. After five years, I left the court to work as an independent lawyer, specializing in copyright and corporate law.

In 2018 I started working with a small but strong game development studio as an in-house lawyer, taking care of all the paperwork and legal acts necessary for operations. Since my second master's degree is in managerial economics and I've been an avid gamer for my whole life, I started to immerse myself more in product development.

During my career in the video game industry, I ran Blakkfort as a studio manager and PM; wore all kinds of hats in Full HP (project management, business development, game design, UX and legal aspects); worked as a producer in Tactile Games, combining project and product management, and later incorporated a new branch for Tactile Games in Cyprus which I'm currently running.

I worked on 17 games in different capacities, managed teams of 120+ people across 9 countries.

I regularly speak at various industry events, do lectures at universities and write articles here and in my blog Retrieving Thoughts.

I am a certified Project Management Professional, Scrum Master and prompt engineer, which helps me tailor my approach to specific projects and teams for the best results.
