Data-focused professional transitioning from hospitality to data science, blending client service with analytical training.
What I'm looking for
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.
