Biography
I am a young, aspirational student studying Engineering and Information Technology at the Queensland University of Technology. In the future I’d love to work either in AI, robotics or medical prosthetics, while also being on the cutting edge of modern technologies. However at the moment you’ll probably find me either studying, playing netball and basketball, reading, drawing and tinkering with robots. I’m really excited to see how the future of the IT world will come together, and excited to help engage more women in this field.
