I'm building Bluedot—software and payments infrastructure for operating electric fleets.

I got obsessed with logistics and transportation because they're the backbone of how goods and services move. When electric vehicles started reshaping cost, policy, and infrastructure, it felt like one of those rare shifts where a technical change forces an economic rewrite.

I grew up in Turkey in a military household, moved constantly, and learned early how to adapt fast and work with focus. School was my first leverage—I ranked in the top 100 nationally, studied psychology and business, and became obsessed with how systems and incentives shape human behavior. That obsession eventually turned into building products.

Today, Bluedot supports fleets across public charging, home charging reimbursement, and depot workflows, working with partners and customers across major enterprises and cities like City of San Francisco, City of Seattle, Duke Energy, Rivian and more.

I care about mental health, decision-making (poker taught me more than most classes), robotics, and building things that translate from theory into the real world.
