01 · Profile

Analysis first, opinions second

I am an Economics graduate from Middle East Technical University, one of Turkey's most demanding universities, focused on financial analysis, strategy and evaluating business and investment opportunities.

What interests me most is the moment a vague question becomes a structured one: which drivers matter, what the data actually supports, and what a decision-maker should do about it. I would rather deliver a defensible answer with its caveats stated than a confident one that does not survive scrutiny.

Working across Azerbaijani, Russian, English and Turkish, I am comfortable with sources, clients and colleagues that do not all speak the same language.

Drivers of mortality outcomes

An independent research project, run end to end: what actually moves a public-health outcome, health spending, inequality, or growth?

0Years of data
0Variation explained
0Drivers tested

Scope before data

Narrowed an open-ended question to three testable drivers and set the hypotheses first, rather than fitting a story to the output.

Source and reconcile

Compiled 32 years of annual figures from World Bank and central bank databases into one clean, analysis-ready dataset.

Quantify the drivers

Health spending and GDP proved statistically significant; income inequality did not, in a model explaining 68% of the variation.

Stress-test the answer

Ran a full battery of validity checks and stated plainly where the model's assumptions did not hold, instead of reporting the headline number uncritically.

Deliver the recommendation

Wrote the complete product: background research, methodology, findings, and a recommendation aimed at a policy audience.
