When I first picked up a Raspberry Pi, I thought I was only learning to code. In reality, I was learning to build bridges—between people, between ideas, and between possibilities. Over the years, I’ve explored how technology can improve lives, from founding BiYemek.org to provide meals for those in need, to mentoring peers through programming clubs, to volunteering in community projects. Beyond coding, I’ve discovered creativity and responsibility in caring for endangered animals and even in the precision of cooking, each experience shaping my sense of empathy and purpose. What excites me most today is combining knowledge with impact—whether through designing solutions, supporting communities, or protecting ecosystems. For me, innovation is most powerful when it is shared, and every step I take is driven by the belief that small ideas, when nurtured, can create meaningful change.
