Before coming the Lecturer in World Philosophy at University of Glasgow, I worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Philosophy at Princeton University as part of the PRÉCIS project. I obtained my Ph.D. in Philosophy at Johns Hopkins University Spring 2024. I did my M.A. in Philosophy and B.A. in Translation and Interpreting Studies at Boğaziçi University in İstanbul, Turkey. I am originally from Havza, Samsun, a little town in northern Turkey with excellent hot springs. I am type-1 diabetic (since 2002).

I am broadly interested in Philosophy in the Islamic World, Philosophy of Language, Epistemology, Metaphysics, Philosophy of Logic. My work draws both from history of philosophy in 8-16th century Islamic world and from contemporary philosophy of language, epistemology and metaphysics. I develop ideas in the great Islamic era with contemporary philosophical rigor.
