After graduating from Dokuz Eylul University Computer Programming department in 2014, I started the Department of Software Engineering at Izmir University of Economics with DGS transfer exam. With the preparatory education I received in the first year, I completed the program in 5 years. Prior to the last semester, I had an internship experience as a software developer in a software company at IYTE TeknoPark. Two months after my graduation, I started working as a PEGA Decisioning Architect at Bentego and as an Outsource consultant at Vodafone. In my professional life I have not put my personal development on the back burner; I increased my competencies and certificates. I have completed my 2nd year as of this month.
