About Me

• I am a PhD student at Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics Department at UT Austin.
• My Research interests lies in stochastic optimal control and trajectory optimization problems in uncertain, safety critical systems.
• I obtained by BS degree on Mechanical Engineering from Bogazici University graduating with the highest GPA (3.89) among 70 students.

I am a PhD student in the Department of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics at the University of Texas at Austin with a special focus on Control Theory, Autonomous Systems, and Robotics. My research interests lie in the theory and applications of stochastic optimal control and reinforcement learning for uncertain, safety-critical systems. My current research specifically focuses on density steering problems for dynamical systems which uses the theory of optimization and optimal mass transport. Prior to joining UT for my PhD studies, I obtained my BS degree on Mechanical Engineering from Bogazici University graduating with the highest GPA (3.89/4.0) among 70 students.
