I am a science graduate, specializing in polymer chemistry, with experience performing leading research into RAFT-based polymer networks as 4D platforms. These polymers could be 3D printed and then grown to transform their shape and properties, all using visible light photopolymerisation. During my time at the University of Auckland I taught and designed undergraduate chemistry laboratories, as well as working with the Newmarket Innovation Precinct as a student ambassador. Through this I gained a wide set of skills in communication, teaching, and project planning.I also gained skills in presentation and innovation through the Centre for Innovation and Entrepreneurship’s Solve It challenges, where my team placed 1st two years running. I have also presented at several international conferences with awards for posters and oral presentations.
