Sevda received her BLA and MLA degrees from Turkey. Her research interest was the technical aspects of green roofs in the undergraduate years. Later, her interests expanded to include not only green infrastructure and green roofs, but also the overall concepts of sustainability and urbanism, their interaction with landscape architecture, and the environmental benefits associated with such schools of thought in the MLA. She also conducted some volunteer works regarding permaculture during her master’s.
