Student Assistant
Logistics and technical support for an event that runs on hundreds of international participants and no slack in the schedule.
Fifty-odd applications for paying clients. One earthquake need-map that fifty million people hit in a week. A mentor marketplace that has reached ten thousand students.
I started freelancing at fourteen and never really stopped. Fifty-odd full-stack applications later, the pattern is the same every time: someone describes a problem badly, and the work is figuring out what they actually meant before writing a line of code.
The projects I care most about weren't commissioned. After the 2023 Türkiye earthquake I helped build a need-map that search and rescue teams actually used — it reached fifty million visits in a week. That taught me more about engineering under pressure than any course has.
Right now most of my time goes into Colleged — a marketplace that puts verified Ivy League mentors in front of students who can't afford a $500-an-hour consultant. Ten thousand students reached so far, and second place at the startAD incubator. The rest goes to a camera on an airfield fence.

Aviation, motorsport, astro and whatever else holds still long enough — the part of my week that isn't code. A hundred thousand frames so far, including six NF-5s against the moon and a P-51 that won the İzmir municipality contest.
