Biography

I’m a Ph.D. candidate at the Department of Computer and Data Sciences in CWRU under the supervision of Dr. Erman Ayday.
I obtained my M.Sc. degree in Computer Engineering from Bilkent University, Turkey in 2018. and my B.Sc. in Computer Engineering from Epoka University, Albania in 2016.
My research interests include Data Privacy, Data Security and Graph Visualization. For my recent research, I am focused on the privacy of genomic data.
