About
I am a fourth-year Cybersecurity Ph.D. student at Northeastern University, where I work with Engin Kirda.
I am a researcher and engineer who solves problems. My current focus is on systems security, and these days, I am exploring the web security domain.
I hold a BS degree in Computer Science and Engineering and a BA degree in Economics from Sabanci University, Istanbul.
