Now
Five years in. Currently at a travel company, shipping a B2C platform for hotel and tour bookings. Most of my day goes into performance work and pixel-perfect execution.

About
The short story
Five years in, three chapters so far.
Before
My degree is in Electronics & Communication Engineering, but in my final year I pivoted to software and taught myself to code. First stop was TÜBİTAK with Angular — where CSS and TypeScript clicked for me. Then Payten Technology, where I learned to model complex logic and ship genuinely reusable React components. That's the path that brought me here.
Beyond
Outside work I read, take long walks, and still write code for fun on the side. I try to keep a life that feeds the work — not the other way around.
