I serve as a Research Economist at the International Economic Relations Department at the Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye and, starting in July 2026, I will be a Postdoctoral Researcher at Johns Hopkins University. Prior to this role, I served as a Researcher in the Structural Economic Research Department. I specialize in analyzing extensive microdata on firms, banks, and individuals, transforming these insights into essential inputs that inform monetary policy decisions. 

I received my Ph.D. in Economics from Sabancı University and hold a B.A. in Economics from Middle East Technical University. 

My primary research interests are in Macroeconomics, Applied Econometrics, Monetary Policy, and Banking. Specifically, I examine how economic agents form inflation expectations and how institutions and government policies shape credit market outcomes for banks and firms. By analyzing large datasets, I derive insights into the behavior and performance of firms, banks, and individuals to address critical macroeconomic questions. Additionally, my secondary interests lie in Firm Dynamics and Financial Economics.
