About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Working hard!

ABOUT ME

I'm an energetic, easy going person wıth a love for learning and the outdoors. I am very independent, but I always try to be cooperative as well. When I am home I usually work pretty hard, so this summer has been wonderfully relaxing. It has also inspired me to travel much more in the next few years.

PHILOSOPHY

Striking a balance between optimism and realism is vital, as is learning from experience. Honesty and humility help.
