I earned my Ph.D. in Structural Engineering from Istanbul Technical University in March 2024, with an alumni number of 770021782. During my coursework and qualification exams, I worked with my advisor, Prof. Dr. Ali Sarı, in the Reinforced Concrete Department. At the thesis stage, I transferred to the Mechanical Department and completed my research and Thesis under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Teoman Özer.



Personal Background:
I was born in the city of Urmia, Iran, on March 5, 1991 (14 Esfand 1369 in the Iranian calendar), just before the Nowruz holidays. At that time, my family was living in Tabriz, so they obtained my official ID from Tabriz on March 25, 1991.
I went to school in Tabriz but spent all my holidays in the beautiful city of Urmia, including summers and Nowruz holidays. In 2009, I started studying Nuclear Physics at university, but after two years, I left the program. In September 2011, I enrolled in Civil Engineering. The rest of my academic career is detailed under the "Academic Journey" section of this website.
Outside of my professional life, I have been an avid chess player since the age of four. Chess has been my main hobby, and I enjoy challenging myself and others. Feel free to challenge me to a friendly bullet or blitz chess game on [Chess.com](My Chess.com Profile) or [Lichess](My Lichess Profile).
I am also a passionate fan of the Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings series. I have read the novels and watched these two series countless times. I am one of the few people who have seen The Lord of the Rings more than 100 times.

Professional Background:
As of October 1, 2024, I have started working as a Construction Management Supervisor at Trusa Investment Management, marking the next challenge and a new stage in my career. This role allows me to develop my consulting and project management skills further. Previously, I balanced a demanding role in the civil engineering industry as a designer of Reinforced Concrete (RC) buildings while pursuing research in mathematical models. Despite the challenges, I successfully managed both responsibilities and completed my Ph.D. while working. I look forward to continuing my professional growth in this new role while pursuing my Applied Mathematical research.
