Ahmet Selim Taşaltın

I'm a double major student at Koç University pursuing Physics and Computer Engineering with a specialization in the Quantum & Photonics Track. I achieved the Dean's Honor Roll and have been coding for over 7 years (starting with Visual Basic in middle school).

I've been developing Unity-based applications for over 5 years, with expertise in 3D asset design, animations, and digital simulations using Blender. My work spans from classical game development to cutting-edge quantum computing research.

Currently, I'm an Undergraduate Research Assistant at Koç University Surface Science and Technology Center (KUYTAM) as part of the Work & Study Program.
