About
After earning my degree in Computer Engineering, I worked as a software developer on e-gov projects before joining Microsoft Consultancy Services as a Developer Consultant. There, I designed & optimized databases, developed web & desktop applications, and guided teams in .NET and SQL Server. I later took on roles as a business analyst, project manager, and program manager.
While advancing my education with a Master's and PhD in Information Management, I began teaching software engineering at the Cankaya University in Fall 2020. I’m dedicated to creating an inclusive learning environment and mentoring future software engineers.
