I'm a third-year Electrical and Electronic Engineering student at the University of Bristol. I learn best with my hands: wiring something up, getting it wrong, then working out why.
On campusCourse rep for my year, two years running.
LanguagesTurkish and English.
Off the clockArduino builds, books about science and data, exploring new places and Cities: Skylines.

Experience and education.
2024 to 2028
MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering
University of Bristol
On track for a 2:1, averaging 65% across Years 1 and 2. This year is mostly embedded systems and power electronics.
2025 to now
Course Representative
Electrical and Electronic Engineering, University of Bristol
Collecting feedback from around 110 students on my course and raising it with staff, for the second year running.
Summers 2025 and 2026
Baggage Agent, then Ramp Agent
Jet2.com, Bristol Airport
Started in the baggage hall, then came back for a second season marshalling aircraft and talking to the flight deck over the headset.
2023 to 2024
Customer Service
Sainsbury's, Worcester
Tills, bakery, online orders and stock checks alongside my A-levels. Went back to help over Christmas 2025.
2022 to 2024
A-levels
Worcester Sixth Form College
Mathematics (A*), Further Mathematics (B) and Physics (B), plus an EPQ (A) on electric aircraft.

Third-year Electrical and Electronic Engineering student at the University of Bristol, on track for a 2:1. The part of the degree I enjoy most is the hands-on side: FPGA design, embedded C, and building my own Arduino projects at home. I've been course rep for two years running, and I helped set up BriSS, a new student silicon and hardware group at Bristol, as one of a founding team of five. I'm now its vice president. I've also spent two summers working airside for Jet2, where doing things properly under time pressure is the whole job. I'm looking for a summer 2027 internship in electronics or electrical engineering.

Engineering projects
FPGA peak detector
Team project, University of Bristol
Worked in a team to design a peak detector in VHDL and run it on an FPGA.
Built the data processor, working closely with one other team member.
The finished system reads a stream of values from 000 to 999, picks out the highest, and displays it alongside the three samples before and after.
Built a music player with LEDs that flash in time with the track, a countdown prototype for an aircraft anti-collision system, and a roulette-style game.
Teaching myself Fusion 360 so I can design and print custom parts for these builds.
