<p>I graduated from the Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine in 2016. Driven by a growing interest in otology and neurotology during my clinical rotations, I chose to pursue my residency in Otorhinolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery.</p>
<p>During my residency at Dokuz Eylül University, I completed a one-month clinical observership in 2023 under Prof. Dr. Daniele Marchioni at the University of Modena, Italy. This experience provided me with invaluable insights into advanced endoscopic ear surgery and lateral skull base surgery.</p>
<p>I completed my residency training in October 2024 and successfully passed the European Board Examination the following month, in November 2024. In 2025, I began pursuing a Master’s degree in Audiology at Dokuz Eylül University. Additionally, I was admitted to the School of Otology, where I completed both its theoretical curriculum and the cadaveric dissection training.</p>
<p>I successfully passed the Turkish Board of Otorhinolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery examination in September 2025. Since January 2025, I have been working as an ENT specialist at İzmir Kemalpaşa State Hospital to fulfill my mandatory government service..</p>
