Collaborate with My Fantastic Lab Colleagues!
- I've always held the belief that the secret sauce to keeping up motivation and enthusiasm within a team lies in the fantastic folks you share your work journey with!
- That's why I always see myself as just another Team-Player of the team, someone who helps create a comfy and welcoming atmosphere.
- I absolutely adore bouncing ideas off my lab buddies! This round-robin of thoughts and perspectives always gets our creative juices flowing, leading to super efficient solutions for any challenges we may encounter.
Work with Amazing K12, Capstone, and Master Students!
- During my doctoral journey, I was lucky enough to guide five wonderful K12 high school students, a couple of Capstone Teams, and numerous Master's students.
- I'm thrilled to have had this chance to learn and grow alongside these young students - they're absolutely fantastic! Each one of them has an impressive knack for practical applications.
- I feel it's not quite accurate to say I was their mentor - I see myself as a fellow team member. We pooled our thoughts to find the best solutions, which often sparked new ideas in my mind and even helped improve my English! I'm so thankful for this enriching experience!
I am a good friend!
- I'm a bit of an all-rounder when it comes to hobbies. I adore indulging in good food and am an avid fan of all things sporty! Nothing makes me happier than having my friends over for a fun day of watching sports or heading out for a refreshing hike or run. Participating in local running events with my buddies is always a blast!
- Our visiting scholar from the lab, the wonderful Dr. Fatih, and I completed his first half-marathon together. He's since moved back to Turkey, but I've been thrilled to see him taking part in races, even bagging a few medals. We've made a pact to run the Istanbul Marathon together one day!
- As for my Indian friends, we have the most fantastic birthday traditions. Whenever someone's special day comes around, we all gather to feast on my favorite Indian dishes and celebrate together. Every moment is filled with joy, and I simply adore them!
