Hi, I'm Batu.

I work at the intersection of research, design, and product — making sense of complexity and turning it into something useful. I'm a systems thinker and a humanist working in tech at a moment when technology needs more human judgment, not less.

What I care about is how the future gets built, and who it's built for — the places where contemplative practice and AI might meet, where insight becomes something real. I'm drawn to questions that don't have clean answers yet: what it means to delegate parts of your life to software, how attention survives the next decade, what a more thoughtful relationship between people and machines could actually look like. Most of my side work is me trying to answer those questions by building.

I live in Brooklyn with my family and two opinionated schnauzers.
