My Projects


Mentor

Mobile application created with React-Native & TS (previously Flutter/Dart) for a non-profit organization. I'm actively working on this project, and it's the biggest one so far

Image Captioning

Completely functional web application that runs our custom image captioning models along with video processing features.

Music review website that allows users to share reviews for songs/albums with Spotify integration.

My Story



  • 1998

    The Beginning

    I was born in Istanbul, Turkey, and lived in many different cities. I was a kid at this time period, so I was probably rolling around, getting injured, and breaking things apart to see how they worked

  • 2012

    Kuleli Military High School

    Kuleli... The most challenging years of my entire life. Remind me to explain more about this part if we become good friends

  • 2017

    Welcome to USA!

    Yep, at the age of 19, just by myself, with a very limited amount of funds, I decided to start a new life on another continent with a different culture and language

  • 2018 - 2019

    Community College & Work

    Starting a new life from scratch brought some additional responsibilities. I was working part-time while continuing my undergraduate studies in the language I started speaking a year ago

  • 2019 - 2021

    The University of Texas at Austin

    I started as a pre-med student and after suffering immense pain due to my professor's liberal arts way of doing things, I decided to take my first computer science class. I quickly realized that I belong to the world of 0's and 1's

  • 2020 - 2021

    Internships

    Obviously, I needed to prove that I actually belong to the computer science world and deserve my CS GPA. Through some internships and successful intern projects (Kudos to my amazing team!), I gained a lot of confidence in my programming skills.

  • Jan 2022

    American Airlines

    After having multiple options, I chose to start my professional career at American Airlines since their Mobile App Team had great people! I contributed to the Loyalty & Booking squads as a Backend/DevOps engineer.

  • Sep 2022

    IBM

    In an attempt to challenge myself a bit more, I joined the Big Blue. I'm currently working on bootstrap automation for new data centers in the IBM Cloud NextGen Team
