​I hail from Bursa, Turkey, and resided in Istanbul prior to relocating to the USA years ago. At my core, I'm an engineer. I revel in constructing, mending, and—admittedly—sometimes inadvertently damaging items at home.

 

Engaging with my local community is a passion. Over the years, I've dedicated my time voluntarily to numerous non-profit initiatives.

 

My travels have taken me across five continents and seventeen countries! Beyond globetrotting, I cherish moments with my family, hikes in nature, bird-watching, and a good game of basketball.
