PhD Student in Computer Science at the University of British Columbia
I am a PhD student in Computer Science at the University of British Columbia, advised by Prof. Kevin Leyton-Brown. Before that, I completed a double major in Computer Science and Engineering and Industrial Engineering at Sabancı University. My research interests lie in Algorithm Configuration, Algorithmic Game Theory, Knowledge Representation and Reasoning, and Multi-Agent Systems.

Computer Science and Mathematics
Automatically tuning and selecting algorithms instead of hand-tweaking them. I am interested in configuration procedures with provable guarantees, algorithm selection, and empirical performance models for solvers of hard combinatorial problems.
Computation in settings where participants act strategically. I am interested in mechanism and market design, equilibrium computation, and using learning methods to design rules that lead to good collective outcomes.
Logic-based representations that enable automated reasoning. I am interested in declarative problem solving such as Answer Set Programming, and in combining symbolic reasoning with learning for more explainable AI.
How autonomous agents coordinate, communicate, and plan together. I am interested in decentralized planning under uncertainty, epistemic reasoning about what agents know, and fair, effective coordination mechanisms.
