About

Hi, I'm Melih. My path runs from forensic science to computer engineering, and today I work on systems that learn from data and on web technologies.

I completed my bachelor’s degree in Forensic Science at Üsküdar University in 2023. During those years I started writing code, and the joy of turning an idea into a working program changed my direction for good.

Following that curiosity, I did internships in cyber security at Ölçsan Teknoloji and in data science at OptiWisdom. Today I am pursuing a master’s degree in Computer Engineering at the same university.

Right now I am exploring where I can make the most impact across AI, data science, web development and computer networks. I share what I learn here as projects and writing.
