Introduction

I was enrolled in Koç University Philosophy department and then I have discovered that I love working with computers as much as I love working with people. This is why I have started a double major in Computer Engineering. More important, I have never wanted to be on the one edge of my majors, I am using my skills I gained from being a Philosophy student: analyzing a problem and overthinking; and from being a Computer Engineering student: the one who solves the problems according to people's technical needs. Here I am, not at the middle of bridge between social relations and technical crew but being the bridge itself.
