Hi, I’m Batu!

A fourth year Electronics and Communication Engineering Student at Istanbul Technical University, Turkey.

I’m passionate about digital hardware design and emdedded software. I love learning new things, staying up-to-date with the latest advancements, and taking on exciting projects that push me to grow.

My goal is to create innovative solutions and leave a meaningful mark in the tech world. Along the way, I’m always looking for ways to improve myself and learn from the best practices in the industry.

Outside of engineering, I’m all about reading, making music, and traveling as much as I can. I’ll be sharing bits of my journey and experiences here. Stay tuned!
