Ceyda Kalkan

I am a Management Engineering student at Istanbul Technical University with a strong background in systems thinking, financial planning, process optimization, intellectual property law, and data analysis. Alongside my academic training, I have developed a passion for creative writing and screenwriting, supported by film production workshops and hands-on projects. My engagement with literature, poetry, and artistic practices has enhanced my analytical skills, emotional intelligence, and attention to detail, while my coursework has equipped me to integrate mathematics, management, and technology into practical solutions. I thrive at the intersection of analytical problem-solving and creative innovation, aiming to contribute value through both perspectives.
