About me

I am studying a Bachelor of Applied Data Science and intend to pursue research in the field of AI safety. I aim to use the knowledge I gain in Asia about safe AI implementation to guide Australia’s next generation of innovators in the ethical development of these technologies. Along the way, by strengthening ties between Australia’s and Asia’s technology sectors, I will endeavour to create opportunities for aspiring entrepreneurs from both regions, facilitating mutual support and the exchange of knowledge. When I’m not chasing these lofty aspirations, I’m also spending my time as an avid participant in disability rights movements. In my spare time, you might find me listening to Japanese pop music while relaxing or munching on authentic Asian cuisines with my family. Both AI and Asian culture are an integral part of who I am, which is why I am keen to embark on my Asian Experience.
"The Westpac Scholarship is a life-changing gateway that will connect me to 100 new opportunities every year for the rest of my life - 100 opportunities to make positive changes that matter, 100 opportunities to learn from leaders that will shape the future of Australia and the world, and last but certainly not least, 100 lifelong friends to share unforgettable experiences with."
