ABOUT

I am Professor of Marketing at San Francisco State University. I've also taught at University of Utah, American University-Beirut, Universite de Nice-Sophia Antipolis-France, University of Innsbruck-Austria, Bahcesehir University-Istanbul&Silicon Valley, and Bogazici University-Istanbul. To learn more about my research publications, see my Academia.edu profile. As a marketing consultant, I have worked with brands such as Philips, SCA, and REI. 

I am also an avid endurance athlete: climber, ultrarunner, adventure racer, skier, and mountaineer. This blog features stories from occasional adventures, some of which makes context for my academic research on risk marketing and risk consumption - featured in BBC, KelloggInsight, and Spectrum (Scientific American German Edition) among others. (Here are some of the latest press on my Everest climb: NTV, TDF, TRT.)

7-SUMMITS PROJECT

I have been climbing the highest mountains on every geographical continent, known as 7-Summits:

1. Asia - Everest, 8848m

2. South America - Aconcagua, 6962m

3. North America - McKinley, 6195m

4. Africa - Kilimanjaro, 5963m

5. Europe - Elbrus, 5642m

6. Oceania - Carstenz, 4484m

7. Antarctica - Vinson, 4897m

(& Australia - Kosciusko, 2228m)

Carstenz Peak is the real 7th summit with Oceania as the real continent but I keep Kosciusko in my list as well, which was part of the old list. I have already climbed 6 of them (in bold). Read its short story in Skylife Magazine of Turkish Airlines, November 2015.
