Can Aytöre

Industrial Engineer, M.Sc.
R & Python-ist 🐍

Hello dear reader, I’m Can, just a random data engineer & scientist candidate. I have found that creating this blog page allows me to store my work perfectly and encourages me to always be curious about new technologies and more importantly keep learning. Hopefully you would find content on this blog that interests you.

I was always eager to be an engineer from the very first day. When data science became a thing back then, I was that lucky to be able to combine my interests and it was pretty clear where to head.

I’ve been inevitably finding myself coding in major programming languages such as Python, R, and SQL for over 8 years. To keep my projects traceable, reproducible and scalable, I use git for version control, Conda for virtual environments, RStudio projects for structuring working directories, and Jupyter Notebook and R Markdown for interactive computing and reporting.

When I’m not coding, you may find me reading, exploring, traveling, swimming, or sailing. Therewithal I recently started playing Chess and picked up aerial photography again - my portfolio is at ca.photography.

You can find further information about me below or on my Google Scholar, Github, and blog-posts. Also of course you are very welcome to connect with me via LinkedIn.
