This is Sefik.
I received my MSc in Computer Science from Galatasaray University in 2011.
I have been working as a software engineer since 2010.
I am a West Londoner, but I am a true Istanbulite at heart.
My research interests are Machine Learning and Cryptography. I’ve published several research papers about these motivations. Also, I enjoy speaking to communities about these disciplines. Moreover, I enjoy to contribute open source projects.
I am a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) for developer technologies since ’24 and Neo4j Ninja 🥷 since ’22.
The blog tagline – 💬 code wins arguments – comes from the mantra of Mark Zuckerberg. I heavily believe in this culture. The best way to build something new is prototyping and seeing it works instead of debating for days. Hence, you will find hands-on experiences I had in this blog.
In addition to these, my hobbies are watching movies 🎬, homebrewing 🍺 and growing cactus🌵.
On top of that, I have one daughter, Melissa.
Feel free to keep in touch if you ever need anything or just want to say hi. While I’m always open to engaging conversations and building connections, please note that I am not assisting with help requests related to university theses, homework, technical support, or provide free consultancy. This is to ensure I can focus on creating content and engaging with you in meaningful ways. Still, you can reach out to me for paid consultancy services.
