About

I study Computer Engineering at MEF University on a full scholarship. One question sits at the center of my work: how does a manual, repetitive, scattered process become a reliable system?

That is why most of what I build is automation:

I use LLMs as part of the pipeline rather than as decoration: for generation, summarization, and prioritization. I work in Python and Java; API integration, RAG pipelines, and prompt design are part of my daily work.

The visual side is familiar territory too. As art director for Sage Türkiye I built everything from the brand identity and logo to the editorial visual language, and I created Altınkoç Academy's brand guidelines. Being able to build both how a product works and how it looks means never having to translate between the two.

I led a team of 20+ at MEF Gaming for three years and moved into the advisory presidency this term. The stage side has always been there as well: I have won two eTwinning National Quality Awards, and I have been organizing and hosting events since high school. So I don't only build systems; I present them, design them, and deal with the part where people actually have to use them.

Experience

  1. August 2026 - Present

    MEF Gaming | Advisory President

    After handing over the presidency I support the community as advisory president: passing on institutional memory, guiding the new team, and maintaining external relationships.

  2. August 2023 - August 2026

    MEF Gaming | President & Event Director

    I directed the university's largest gaming community, coordinating a cross-functional team of 20+ members across creative, technical, and operational units.

    • Organized two nationwide game jams (MEFJam) end to end, from venue management to participant coordination
    • Designed a social media production workflow built on generative AI tools (Midjourney, ChatGPT) that cut the creative team's manual workload significantly
    • Secured the corporate sponsorships that funded our event operations
  3. August 2024 - June 2026

    Google Developers Group on Campus MEF | Social Media Lead

    I led digital communication for technical workshops and hackathons, using data-driven insights to grow reach within the developer ecosystem.

    I established a standard content pipeline for event announcements that keeps branding consistent across platforms.

  4. August 2025 - December 2025

    Startup MEF | IT Manager

    I oversaw the technical setup and digital operations for entrepreneurship summits, ensuring zero downtime during live events.

  5. 2019 - 2023

    Pertevniyal High School | Hosting & Event Organization

    During high school I took on stage and event organization work.

    • 151st Term Pin Ceremony (2019): The pin ceremony is the most significant event Pertevniyal holds for each graduating term, and the term speaker addresses the audience on behalf of the entire term. I gave that speech to an audience of nearly 500.
    • MUN (2020): Master of ceremonies for the Model United Nations event Pertevniyal hosted, attended by Istanbul schools including Kabataş and Beşiktaş
    • Turkish-German Day (2022): I both organized and hosted the event, again speaking to a room of nearly 500

My projects

  • StudyCore

    An exam-prep management platform I build for tutoring and coaching centers. It brings the student, mentor, and administration triangle into a single system, with an optional parent portal as a fourth role. Students get pomodoro-based study tracking, question and score logging per resource, and an assignment flow; mentors get per-student performance views, curriculum-based assignment, and session reports; administration gets mentor-to-student assignment management and report templates. It runs on FastAPI and SvelteKit with MySQL, deployed via Docker, and I wrote the commercial layers too: the pricing engine, promo code system, and application flow. It is currently in active use by 2 mentors and 10 students.

  • ContentCore

    An AI-assisted content production and publishing platform I designed for news sites and social media agencies. It pulls stories from RSS sources, rewrites them in Turkish per platform via the Gemini API, handles image selection (scrape / upload / built-in template / Canva integration), and publishes on a schedule to Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter/X. One deliberate design decision sits at the center: Gemini only runs when the user triggers it, so no credits are burned in the background. Alongside the technical architecture I worked out the credit-based pricing, cost model, and competitive positioning. The product has been delivered to agencies and is used on real client work.

  • Pixera TV

    A gaming media platform I founded and have been building as lead developer since May 2025.

    • GhostwriterAI: a content generation module built on the Gemini API. It turns raw data into social media hooks and summaries, cutting content creation time by 70%.
    • RSSFeeder: a Python-based data pipeline. It scrapes RSS feeds from major gaming news outlets, de-duplicates records, scores relevance, and structures the data into Google Sheets for the editorial team.

    I designed the backend to handle high-volume ingestion while keeping the scraper and the content dashboard in real-time sync.

  • Gaming Kuki Bot

    A workflow tracking engine I built for MEF Gaming as lead developer and architect in December 2025. Using the Google Sheets API as the backend database, it replaced fragmented manual follow-ups with an automated daily briefing system.

    The conditional logic I wrote in Python and Apps Script distinguishes between two modes:

    • Operational alerts: escalating delays to leadership over the WhatsApp API
    • Cultural engagement: pop-culture-themed motivational briefs over the Gmail API when workflows are on track

    A dynamic fetching algorithm cleans raw contact data and maps tasks to specific members without hardcoded values, so it scales.

  • Homework Bot

    A native macOS menu bar app that automates the retrieval of university assignments from Blackboard.

    I reverse-engineered the LMS authentication flow to fetch and visualize pending tasks, removing the need for manual checks entirely.

  • Visual Design Work

    Outside of software I also do brand identity and social media design; part of that work lives on my Behance profile.

    • Sage Türkiye: Art director. I owned the brand identity, logo design, and all art-editorial work, building the full visual language including Instagram posts and reels covers.
    • Altınkoç Academy: I created the brand identity and brand guidelines, then designed the social media posts against that system.
    • MEF Gaming: A semester-long visual identity and content portfolio.

    I work in Photoshop and Illustrator.
