What I do

Hire me for

Cross-disciplinary work where scientific rigor actually matters. Pick one or combine — most engagements blend a few.

01

Lab & AI Consulting

Laboratory development, operations, and AI-integrated systems — from workflow design and automation to bio-safety environments. Built and led labs end to end.

02

Web & SEO

Full website builds plus technical and content SEO: site architecture, internal linking, citation strategy, and content cadence that ranks and converts.

03

App Building

Custom applications and AI-integrated tools for labs, brands, and small businesses. Google AI–certified in app building and data analysis.

04

Science Writing & Review

Peer-review-style fact-checking for health and supplement content — citation accuracy, claim hedging, and compliance. No fabricated or misattributed research.

05

Supplement Formulation

Functional-mushroom and mycology formulation through my brand, Shroombiosis — blending clinical mycology with modern supplement science.

06

Tutoring & Teaching

Organic chemistry, physics, math, physiology, anatomy, and Turkish. Years as a university teaching assistant across multiple subjects.

How we'd work

A clear process

No mystery, no bloat — a straightforward path from first call to delivered work.

1

Discovery

A short call to understand the goal, scope, and what success looks like.

2

Proposal

A clear plan with deliverables, timeline, and a fixed or scoped quote.

3

Build

Focused execution with regular check-ins — you always know where things stand.

4

Handoff

Delivered, documented, and supported — built to last after I step away.

About

The short story

Born in New Jersey with roots in Istanbul, I graduated from Passaic Valley in 2008 and in 2010 joined the U.S. Army as a 13B Field Artillery Cannon Crewmember, deploying to Afghanistan in 2011 with the 1st Infantry Division, Task Force Duke.

After the Army I went into science — a B.S. in Physiology from the University of Arizona, election to Phi Beta Kappa, and peer-reviewed research in molecular spectroscopy. I completed four years of medical-school coursework at the New York College of Podiatric Medicine, made the Dean's List, then stepped away in my final year after my father's heart attack.

I'm relentlessly multidisciplinary — science, music, and art all drive how I work. Today I consult on labs and AI, build websites and apps, review science content, tutor, and formulate functional-mushroom supplements through Shroombiosis.
