High School Student | Physical AI Enthusiast | FRC Lead | Maker

I'm a mechanical engineering and AI enthusiast with a passion for bridging the gap between hardware and software. My journey started with a homemade 3D printer in middle school and has evolved into winning prestigious international awards in robotics and founding deep tech ventures.

Early Stage Venture Developing AI systems for robotics education. (Major updates coming very soon!)

Bootstrapped a company producing drone motors and electronic cards, funded entirely by revenue from my previous venture, 460 Elektrik. This achievement led to my acceptance into BTM (Bilgiyi Ticarileştirme Merkezi), one of Europe's largest startup acceleration centers, at age 16 (Alumni).

Became the youngest member of the program and was featured in the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce (ITO) Newspaper. I am also an Alumni member of the Amazon Startup Program.

Built an AI-powered sales system for electronics components. The success of this system provided the capital to launch my hardware manufacturing business.

Integrated digital education strategies as an intern at this digital education initiative.

7-month internship at a 3D printer technology company, gaining hands-on industry experience.

Started freelancing at age 12, delivering software solutions for 2 major holdings and various clients for ~2 years.

My passion for hardware started in 7th grade when I built my first 3D printer by forking an open-source model. By 8th grade, I was designing my own printers from scratch, capable of printing high-performance materials like PEEK.

In high school, I joined an independent FRC (FIRST Robotics Competition) team as a founding member and lead.

• The Beginning: We spent two years working out of a 10m² warehouse, pushing our limits with minimal resources but struggling to finish our robots on time.
• The Turning Point: Meeting a teacher from ODTÜ GVO (ODTÜ Development Foundation Schools) changed everything. We gained access to proper machinery and workshops.
• The Result: In our very first year with proper facilities, we became Regional Winners. We have filled our cabinet with National Championships, and now we are laser-focused on becoming World Champions this year! 🚀

• Domains: Physical AI, Mechanical Design, PCB Design, Robotics, UAVs, ROVs.
• Hardware: Custom PCB design (Logic circuit optimization), 3D Printer Design (FDM/PEEK), Drone Mechanical Design.
• Software: Python, Embedded Systems, AI/ML integration in Robotics.

"Beloved by middle school students, who seek his mentorship even outside competition periods."

• Mentorship: Mentored 2 FLL teams (one qualified for Worlds 🌍) and 2 FTC teams (both National Winners 🏆).
• Leadership:
  • Team Captain: Leading the FRC team with a focus on empowering members and crisis management.
  • ProBot & NFR Academy: Leading initiatives to democratize robot design and software education for students.
• Philosophy: Committed to Gracious Professionalism® and Coopertition®, fostering collaboration and collective learning.

“I create things that move, think, and solve real-world problems.”
