I have a proven track record of successfully delivering projects on time and within budget. I have a deep understanding of the energy, oil and gas, and hydrogen industries and stay updated with the latest developments and trends.

I have also led and developed the first national industrial alkaline electrolyser R&D project in Turkey as the Project Manager (Mar 2017 - Dec 2018). My responsibilities included leading the R&D team, developing innovative process concepts for alkaline water electrolysis, leading basic and detail engineering development, and managing the commissioning process. I also identified and pursued greenfield development opportunities and developed partnerships to enhance the company's hydrogen strategy.

I am always keen to connect with like-minded professionals in my field and explore new opportunities.
