Curriculum Vitae
I completed my studies at Dokuz Eylül University, specializing in Public Administration, in 2018. Following a series of short-term sales roles, I experienced a period of unemployment due to my involvement in the airline second pilot nomination process and some health issues. Presently residing in Mersin, Turkey, I am employed as a remote Live Support Representative for an IT company based in Zagreb. In pursuit of a career change, I enrolled in the Data Science Bootcamp at Istanbul Data Science Academy in June 2023, successfully completing the program in January 2024. I am now a Junior Data Scientist with a fervent interest in simplifying intricate information, delving into the realm of data, and translating it into practical insights for informed decision-making and innovative solutions. My objective is continuous self-improvement in areas closely aligned with data science.

Therefore, I prefer to refer to it as 'Fundamentals of Python for Data Science' rather than 'Python Developer'. Please check out my statement of accomplishment below.
