I’m a second-year Software Engineering student at the University of Canberra, and I’m currently focused on turning my learning from university into practical software and IT outcomes. I have experience with Python and Java, and I’ve also studied networking, cybersecurity, and data science—building a solid technical foundation for solving real problems in team environments. Alongside my studies, I’ve worked in customer-facing and people-leadership roles, including working as an Online Department Supervisor at Woolworths and coaching multiple football teams as part of Canberra Grammar School. I also completed a student associate internship at Innovation Central Canberra, where I was responsible for investigating, analyzing, presenting, and recommending market software solutions for an external client—strengthening my research, documentation, and stakeholder communication skills.
