I finally graduated! Stoked to give the valedictory speech at my graduation. I received a Bachelor of Engineering (Mechatronics) and a Bachelor of Computer Science from the University of Melbourne. The first pic is of me and my mum, and the second is of a lectern towering before me!
Forbes named me a world's top 50 woman in tech & 30 Under 30. I founded Robogals and Aipoly and was Young Australian of the Year 2012. Currently working on robotics company Aubot. I'm the youngest Member of the Order of Australia (AM) and I give speeches around the world.
