What I'm looking for

I seek a data-focused role where I can apply Python and analytical training, leverage customer-facing experience, and grow in a collaborative, impact-driven team.

I am a data-focused professional with a strong background in guest services and recent formal training in data science. I combine hands-on customer-facing experience from international hospitality roles with practical data-science coursework and certifications.

My recent roles include process and data-focused positions at Cognizant and a technical research analyst role, where I applied analytical thinking and attention to detail to operational tasks. I am currently enrolled in an intensive Data Scientist Bootcamp to deepen my Python and data analysis skills.

I bring multilingual communication skills (native Turkish, proficient English, basic Spanish and Portuguese) and a client-first mindset developed across major hotel brands and corporate environments. I hold multiple coaching and professional development certifications that strengthen my teamwork and leadership potential.

I am driven to move into data science or data operations roles where I can leverage my customer experience, disciplined work ethic, and newly built technical skills to deliver actionable insights and improve business processes.
