Summary

I'm a recent industrial engineering graduate. I work on data analysis and AI solutions, and on the side I've built up hands-on experience in e-commerce. What I do comes down to understanding business processes and making better decisions from data. My TÜBİTAK-funded AI project has a live demo, and I've run an e-export business selling to the US market on Etsy.
