Short summary of activities and expertiseTo talk about myself, I suppose the most essential or evident characteristic of mine is that I am an introvert. I mean, I'm the perpetual wallflower. But it doesn't mean I don't like being in the company of others. It really appeals to me. I thrive on in-depth talks with people with whom I share a close bond. And I'd like to believe I'm a decent communicator and listener. I am known as a helpful person by my friends and acquaintances. I also enjoy being physically active, and spend a lot of time playing sports and especially team games. During my doctoral studies, I wrote several articles published in top-tier journals. The majority of my study topics were published using the content analysis method. In addition to qualitative content analysis, I conducted quantitative research as well. In these articles, I was in charge of writing and analyzing the data. I work with Leximancer software generally in order to evaluate data from the social media area, which was mostly focused on online reviews shared by consumers. Leximancer 5.0 software was deemed appropriate as it has been used for the analysis of services marketing literature.
