About Me

Born at December 24 in Istanbul. Left Istanbul when I was 10 days old. Travelled all around Turkey with my mom, dad and sister every 2-3 years. Back to Istanbul when I was 17 for university. Studied Mechanical engineering, artificial intelligence, neural networks and software at Bogazici university. Played in Macbeth as a member of Bogazici university theatre club. Contributed to Science & Philosophy magazine as writer, translator and editor. Created sculptures, African masks and potteries. Completed MSc degree on artificial intelligence and control systems. Qualified at PhD courses, 3 wheel robot pruduced and modeled, yet thesis not submitted. Moved to Russia to work. Lived for a while in different countries, England, Ukraine and Kazakhstan. Currently live in Istanbul. Not a traveller, yet being prepared to be. Having my daughter is the best thing I have ever experienced.
