Questions and Answers
Tell us about someone who inspires you and why
How did you become interested in STEM?
What are you most looking forward to about studying STEM at university?
How will the Women of STEM Scholarship assist you?
Dr Fei-Fei Li – she’s contributed so much to computer vision research, and I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve watched her TED Talk on AI.
A combination of brilliant maths teachers, interesting YouTube videos, and great role models.
I’m studying a double degree in Computer Science and Maths, and problem solving is at the heart of both these degrees. I love thinking about different ways I can tackle a particularly difficult proof or programming question, and it’s so rewarding when I finally figure out the answer or understand a concept more deeply.
Since I had to move interstate to attend UNSW, the scholarship will help me with general living expenses – Sydney rent can be expensive!
What job do you hope to pursue after graduating from university?
Definitely something related to software. I’d love to work in industry as a software engineer, but if I choose to undertake further study after my undergrad, it would probably be in machine learning or theoretical computer science.
