About
Most of my free time goes into side projects. Right now my favorite is Temiz Çal, a Spotify filter that mutes only the explicit words, so you never have to skip the song.
My biggest project is Novajet, a platform that brings courier, route and fleet management under one roof for delivery companies. I've also written a few small iOS apps in Swift. CatchTheKenny, for one, is a game I made purely for fun.
By day, I run operations at Novadan. In the evenings, I'm back at my computer, trying out ideas of my own.

Nov 2024 — Present Operations Manager · Novadan
I lead an operations team of 10+ at a pharmacy-to-pharmacy B2B marketplace. I’m responsible for shift planning and task allocation, troubleshooting escalated operational issues, working with our integration and e-invoicing partners, and the company’s operational and financial reporting. Every month I present performance results and upcoming plans to the board, and I act as the bridge between the company’s owners and its operations and software teams.

Temiz Çal
A filter that turns the volume down on Spotify only when an explicit lyric comes up, so the song never stops. It builds a second-by-second mute plan from time-synced lyrics, and for songs with no lyrics available, it generates its own timestamps using speech recognition.
