Before enrolling in engineering at Swinburne I worked in the Outdoor Education Industry as a guide and instructor. Working with both secondary and tertiary students, who were often outside of their comfort zone has allowed me to extensively develop my interpersonal skills. Clear communication, empathetic leadership, and problem solving skills are very important when guiding groups in the outdoors. Currently I am employed as a Test Engineering Student at Robert Bosch Australia, where I have spent the last 3 years implementing and developing both automated and manual tests. These tests have formed part of the software verification process for ABS/ESP controllers. This role has allowed me to develop my problem solving and debugging skills, as well as providing me with a solid grounding in vehicle dynamics.
