I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at Istanbul Aydın University, Türkiye. My research focuses on sustainable construction materials, with a particular emphasis on the development and performance of metakaolin–red mud-based geopolymer mortars and composites. I have conducted and published studies on the mechanical and durability properties of these eco-friendly materials, incorporating fillers such as limestone, marble, and basalt powders, as well as basalt fiber reinforcement to improve toughness, thermal stability, and microstructural integrity. Through my work, I aim to advance innovative and environmentally responsible solutions in civil engineering and construction technology.
