We Organized Traveler Summit called as "Seyyah" (Annual summit that still goes on since 2014 with marjinal travelers) and contact 16 travelers from domestic/abroad invited the event (Annual summit that still goes on since 2014 with marjinal travelers).

Last year, me and my friends create a TEDx Society. A TEDx event is organized by volunteers from the local community, and just like TED events, it lacks any commercial, religious, or political agenda. Its goal is to spark conversation, connection, and community. As Curator I decided who will be speaking at our event also I organized the management committee of 75 people. We organized a TEDx event at 8th December, 2018 with more than 500 listeners in İTU. We are planning a new TEDx event in İTU at 2019.

Lastly, I am a Athlete in ITU Athletic Team and Bousphorus Sports Club. I took part in athletics team as a disc thrower and sprinter. Also participated in university sports games called as coachfest 2 years.
