Officeworks

Published: Thursday, 14 July 2022

Officeworks got in touch to film this short content editorial piece.

They filmed a Robogals workshop in Melbourne, our Jevaroo robot in action and an interview with me.

The aesthetics of this 2-minute piece turned out really nicely!

They also did a Q&A with me about my motivations and journey from my childhood in Cairns and how I progressed from there!  You can access the Q&A here.

About Me

I tweet @maritacheng and I'm on Facebook.
