Piloting XR visualizations to pair with BRT optimizations and structural walkthroughs.
About
I completed my B.Sc. in Civil Engineering at MEF University in January 2026 and worked as a Research and Development Engineer at IDEArc International Engineering and Consulting until September 2026. In October 2026 I start the M.Sc. in Information Technologies for the Built Environment at the Technical University of Munich. I ran applied R&D, optimized transportation systems, and translated structural analysis into digital experiences. Training like YetGen sharpened my facilitation and communication, while community leadership keeps me building with people at the center.
Plan for full lifecycles, validate with real stakeholders, and iterate quickly until the operations and visuals click.
Shipping AEC tools that cut congestion, mentoring student teams, and crafting XR demos that make technical ideas tangible.
Expertise
From optimizing BRT networks to prototyping XR walkthroughs, I connect engineering depth with product delivery.
Run applied R&D for AEC solutions: prototyping, testing, resourcing, and continuous optimization from concept to pilot.
Optimize BRT efficiency through data-backed operations, scenario modeling, and clear communication artifacts.
XR demos and visualizations that make structural analysis, load paths, and engineering tradeoffs feel tangible.
Run governance, workshops, and playbooks that keep chapters organized and alumni engaged across events.
Skills & Tools
From web to civil engineering toolchains, here are the environments I reach for most.
Selected Work
Pieces that mix transportation systems, XR visuals, and intentional storytelling.
Built an immersive walkthrough to visualize load transfer, failure modes, and reinforcement steps with intuitive motion cues.
A performant personal site with purposeful hierarchy, neon gradients, and calls to action tailored for recruiters.
Documentation that scales alumni events and student outreach with clear onboarding, rituals, and feedback loops.
Experience
IDEArc International Engineering and Consulting Ltd.
Developed a web-based project-management platform integrating BIM and GIS data, bringing project intake, status and documentation into one structured overview. Designed an automated model-generation pipeline from project drafts using semantic modelling with AI-based heuristic reasoning. Built an interactive digital twin in Unreal Engine with Pixel Streaming for stakeholder-facing presentation of a highway project.
ENKA Technical Schools Alumni Association
Oversaw governance, alumni engagement, and accountability standards while mentoring volunteers to deliver meaningful programs.
Kolin Construction
Worked on the Çeşmeli–Kızkalesi motorway project. Automated daily construction reporting with a Python script that extracts structured data from Word reports and generates Excel summaries, replacing manual compilation. Ran quality-control processes and daily inspections, coordinating between site and head office.
MTEK İnşaat
Tracked project progress and workforce capacity across an active site. Assured quality of moulding and casting processes during construction.
IDEArc International Engineering and Consulting Ltd.
Designed and implemented an engineering project-management application and portfolio website to support project documentation. Developed a BIM data visualisation application in Unreal Engine for virtual-reality headsets, used to review models.
Özyeğin University — Biomechatronics Lab
Researched kinematics and stress analysis for a 3-DoF robotic arm; presented findings to faculty and lab staff.
ENKA Technical High School
Led a 20-student team to design, manufacture, and present a 4-stroke, 2-cylinder V-type combustion engine.
Education
Technical University of Munich
Enrolled for the winter semester 2026/27; English-taught programme bridging digital tools, data, and the built environment.
Anadolu University
Second degree by distance learning, taken concurrently with the engineering degree to pair technical depth with business fluency.
MEF University
Graduated with a 3.10/4.00 GPA (Honour) on a 100% scholarship, focusing on structural analysis, geotechnical engineering, transportation, and construction management.
National Technical University of Athens
Completed an exchange semester with a 9.25/10.00 grade average.
ENKA Technical High School, Kocaeli
Graduated with a 90.61/100 GPA, building hands-on foundations in automation, mechatronics, and workshop practice.
Leadership & Impact
Whether mentoring peers or launching an XR pilot, I prioritize clarity, ownership, and rituals that keep teams energized.
Built learning sessions around structural concepts, XR tooling, and presentation skills for students and peers.
Created governance and event templates for alumni and student chapters, keeping accountability and momentum predictable.
Keeps stakeholders aligned with transparent updates, shared goals, and field-tested rituals from YetGen training.
Let's collaborate
Reach out for BRT optimization, AEC product strategy, XR pilots, or student initiatives. I'm excited to help ideas glow.
