I am a senior-year undergraduate student in Computer Science at Sabanci University.
Currently, I'm a Research Intern with Prof. Kemal Oflazer at Carnegie Mellon University, focusing on advanced question generation, compound AI systems and multi-agent frameworks.
I'm also a contributor to Project Aya by Cohere for AI, contributing to INCLUDE, a multilingual benchmarking dataset for LLMs.
Previously, I worked with Anmol Goel and Prof. Iryna Gurevych at TU Darmstadt, developing a self-sustaining agentic chatbot system for psychological assessment of Ukrainian refugees, optimized for deployment at Charité Berlin.
I worked as a Research Intern at KTH Royal Institute of Technology under Prof. Gabriel Skantze, developing advanced voice activity prediction models and deploying enhanced models on Furhat Robotics' humanoid robots.
I worked as a Research Intern at EPFL, where I initiated Project Charisius, focusing on developing robust, privacy-preserving federated machine learning environments.
At Sabanci University, I founded and led kAi Sabanci, the university's premier AI club, growing membership to over 600 students.
My research focuses on developing intelligent systems that can reason, collaborate, and adapt. I'm particularly interested in:
