Background


About

About

I was born and raised in Turkey. At the age of 15 my father moved the whole family to The Netherlands where he had been working for 20+ years. I finished my studies in The Netherlands, moved around a bit in the world and ended up in Sweden. I am fascinated by technology and obsessed by learning. I believe a healthy mind is made stronger by a healthy body.
