About Me
I am a fourth-year Management Information Systems student at Altınbaş University, deeply passionate about software development and dedicated to continuous improvement. I have successfully completed Harvard University's CS50 program, which provided me with a strong foundation in algorithmic logic, data structures, and software architecture.
I have recently started a new internship where I am focused on Backend API development using .NET technologies. Prior to this role, I gained full-stack development experience in internships covering database, backend, and frontend processes.
Alongside my current focus on ASP.NET and C#, I have a special interest in data science and artificial intelligence. I work on data extraction, cleaning, analysis, and visualization using Python. I develop basic statistical analyses and machine learning models using libraries such as Pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Scikit-learn. I am proficient in a wide range of technologies, including C, C++, React, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and PHP.
In addition to my technical skills, I strengthened my leadership and communication abilities by serving as the President of the Start-Up Club at my university and achieving departmental honors. I am also actively interested in fitness, boxing, and chess.
