I'm a Philosophy PhD Candidate at Vanderbilt University and an AI Scholar at the Vanderbilt Lab for Immersive AI Translation.

Other than research, I enjoy reading classical literature and popular science, traveling, and watching movies. I also love learning languages. So far I've learned Arabic, German, French, some Latin, and Ottoman Turkish, in addition to English and Turkish (my native). I like collaborating on projects and organizing things.
