Summary

I am a final-year Biomedical Engineering student at Flinders University, set to complete studies at the end of 2025. I have strong passion for applying engineering, data analysis, and system design to solve high-impact, real-world challenges. During my internship at Synopsys, I contributed to a landmark automation project using Simpleware ScanIP to validate segmentation accuracy and analyse inter-operator variability, an experience that strengthened my capabilities in computational modelling and medical imaging. I have practical experience across healthcare and working in the defence, with technical proficiency in MATLAB, Autodesk Inventor, and data analysis. I currently hold an active NV1 security clearance and am committed to pursuing a career at the intersection of national security and technology developing secure, scalable solutions that protect Australia and support the mission of organisations like ASIO. I currently live in Adelaide and I am fully prepared to relocate to Canberra for duration of the graduate program.
