About Me:

I am a Computer Science Ph.D. student at the University of Southern California (USC) and a research assistant at the CPS-VIDA Lab under the guidance of Prof. Jyo Deshmukh. In 2024, I broadened my research interests by joining the AutoDRIVE Lab and collaborating closely with Prof. Rahul Jain. My research spans multi-agent reinforcement learning, representation learning, robotics, and autonomous driving.

I earned my double major in Mathematics and Physics from Bogazici University and completed my master’s degree in Differential Geometry at Istanbul Technical University (ITU). Prior to pursuing my doctoral studies at USC, I gained valuable industry experience as a data scientist and contributed to several impactful AI projects.

I am really passionate about my research and look forward to making meaningful contributions to the computer science community.  🤓
