“Throughout my life, my parents, sister, and friends have always been there supporting me. Without them, I would not be where I am today. Their love and encouragement have motivated me to excel in academics and every goal I have pursued. I am especially grateful to my sister, who was by my side through every step. As I begin this next chapter, I will carry their lessons with me. Sizleri tüm kalbimle seviyorum. (I love you with all my heart)”
