About me

I am a civil engineer with a master’s degree in earthquake engineering, having completed my advanced studies at the prestigious Bauhaus University in Germany. Following my education, I worked at various private construction companies in Gaziantep, gaining hands-on experience in all stages of construction — from site work to project management. For nine years, I served as an infrastructure and superstructure control engineer at the Gaziantep Organized Industrial Zone (GAOSB), where I developed significant technical and managerial expertise.

Seeking to broaden my international perspective, I moved to the United States and lived in California for two years. During this time, I studied English and computer skills at San Francisco City College, further enhancing my competencies. In 2023, I returned to Turkey and currently work as a project specialist at Gaziantep Metropolitan Municipality. In this role, I focus on developing EU-funded projects, international cooperation programs, and sustainable development initiatives, contributing to aligning local governments with global objectives. I am always open to building new partnerships and collaborating on innovative, sustainable projects with measurable impact.
