Hi! I'm a PhD Candidate at the Rome Economics Doctorate, a PhD program jointly run by the Einaudi Institute for Economics and Finance (EIEF), LUISS and the University of Rome Tor Vergata. My research interests are in political economy, development and media economics.

Before moving to Rome, I received B.A. and M.A. degrees in Economics from Koç University, Turkey. I was a visiting scholar at MIT Sloan in Spring 2024 under the supervision of Alexey Makarin.
