Me, Myself & I

About Me

  • Welcome to my personal webpage! I'm Utku Unal, a tech enthusiast passionate about Technology, Geophysics, Big Data, AI, and creating innovative solutions. 
  • I am a proud father of a 13yo boy. 
  • I have worked as a professional in Istanbul for IT companies (HP, CA, Fujitsu, Oracle) for more than 25 years in  individual contributor, manager and director roles  in consulting and technical support departments. Currently I work at Destek as CTO in Istanbul.
  • I have a computer engineer degree from Bogazici University and  I have a masters in geophysics from Bogazici University's KOERI (Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute).  I have attended Master on Artificial Intelligence in UPC (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya) and my master thesis transitioned into PhD research on machine learning in Geophysics (seismic phase picking) at Canakkale Onsekiz Mart University. Currently I am doing my PhD in Canakkale Onsekiz Mart University, School of Graduate Studies, Geophysical Engineering. My area of research is using deep learning for earthquake parameter analysis with seismological big data.
