Hey, this is Elif! I am a Finance Ph.D. student at Kelley School of Business, Indiana University Bloomington. 

I had my bachelor's degree in Business Administration with a specialization in Finance from Middle East Technical University (METU), mostly :) (Between February and July 2022 at the University of Groningen (RuG) in the Netherlands :). 

My research interests lie in M&A, innovation, entrepreneurial finance, and structural estimation. 

I enjoy sharing a drink with my friends, running, trying new sports and cuisines, playing guitar, coding, teaching, writing, reading, and doing research!
