I graduated from Ted Ankara College in 1999 and completed my degree in International Relations at Bilkent University. I also earned a Master's and Ph.D. in Management and Organization from the Turkish Military Academy. I have published an article on leadership styles and conflict management. I hold several certifications in internal training, corporate entrepreneurship, product management, and procurement. Most of my 18 years of work experience have been in procurement, starting at Roketsan A.S. Currently, I am working as a Service and Logistics Procurement Manager at Türktraktör A.Ş.
