About me


I'm a Philosophy PhD Candidate at Vanderbilt University. Besides that, I'm an AI Scholar at VALIANT, Vanderbilt's lab for AI.

Other than research, I enjoy learning finance and high tech, 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 Koine Greek, and Ottoman Turkish, in addition to English and Turkish (my native).
