Passions

  • 3D Printing

Since purchasing a 3D printer during lockdown, I have developed a strong passion for 3D modelling and printing. I most enjoy the ease of prototyping component design fine-tuning print properties to optimise products for specific use cases. This hobby has significantly improved my troubleshooting skills and encouraged out-of-the-box thinking. Some of my favourite projects include an adjustable phone stand and an articulating desk lamp.

  • Running

My love for running initial stemmed from the competitive outlet it provided in high-school while competing in GPS cross country. Since graduation, it has become a method to improve mental clarity, provide necessary structure to my week and create goals to strive for. In 2023, I completed the Brisbane Marathon, and in 2024, I completed the Noosa Marathon. My final goal is to qualify for and compete in the Boston Marathon in the future.
