About
I am a strategic analyst specializing in international relations, with a particular focus on Eurasia and the Turkistan region. I have recently also begun formal training in journalism to further strengthen my ability to communicate and analyze complex geopolitical developments. I am currently pursuing my PhD at Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. I was admitted to this program as the only candidate selected from Türkiye through a competitive interview process, under a fully funded scholarship provided by the Ministry of National Education of the Republic of Türkiye. I graduated from Uşak University in 2025 with a GPA of 3.64 out of 4.00. My master's thesis was titled "Opportunities and Risks for Kazakhstan within the Context of Green Energy Projects under the Belt and Road Initiative." Prior to this, I completed my first master's degree in International Relations at Khoja Akhmet Yassawi International Kazakh-Turkish University, where my thesis focused on ethnic groups in Kazakhstan. I later completed my second master's degree in 2025, with a thesis examining "Kazakhstan–People's Republic of China Cooperation in the Context of the Belt and Road Initiative and Green Energy Projects: Opportunities and Risks." Within this academic and professional framework, I have developed a particular interest in the Eurasian region. I lived for many years in both Ukraine and Russia, where I participated in various projects related to tourism and youth engagement. I am also currently learning Kazakh. In addition, I work as a Eurasia Expert at the Ankara Center for Crisis and Policy Studies (ANKASAM), where I prepare analyses, articles, and interviews focusing on Eurasian countries. I am open to academic collaboration, knowledge exchange, and written interview requests related to international relations, Eurasia, Central Asian politics, journalism, and strategic analysis. I am actively present on LinkedIn to expand my professional network.
