// About

A developer who likes warm light and clean components

I graduated in Computer Engineering from Ege University in 2025 and I build web applications end to end — React and TypeScript on the front, Java Spring Boot and SQL on the back — with a real fondness for interfaces that feel good rather than just look fine.

I like carrying a feature all the way from database schema to the last pixel, and I'm happiest on teams where design and code talk to each other. Outside work: games and a permanently full coffee mug.

graduation projectMachine Learning

Bitcoin LSTM Price Prediction System

Developed a Python-based LSTM model using PyTorch with a teammate to predict Bitcoin price movements. Integrated TA-Lib technical indicators, processed order-book and market data from LakeAPI, and stored features in SQLite. Trained and evaluated the model on Google Colab using high-resolution, multi-time-frame data.

Let's build something warm together

Whether you have something in mind or just want to say hi, I'd genuinely love to hear from you. I'm currently interning and on the lookout for a full-time junior frontend or full-stack role.
