Meet our scholars

Growing up with immigrant parents from Asia and Europe, I experienced life between rural NSW and Sydney, gaining an appreciation for hands-on problem-solving and global connections. My interest in practical work led me to an electrical apprenticeship, but after a knee injury changed my path, I pursued engineering. Now studying Electrical Engineering at Western Sydney University, I’m passionate about renewable energy and sustainability. I’m particularly interested in Japan’s advancements in hydroelectric power, battery storage, and smart grid technology. With Australia expanding its renewable infrastructure, there is much to learn from Japan’s energy resilience and efficiency. Through this scholarship, I hope to gain insights that strengthen Australia’s energy sector and foster collaboration between the two nations. Outside my studies, I’m passionate about sports, history, and exploring new cultures. Whether discussing historical narratives, analyzing energy solutions, or learning from different perspectives, I enjoy engaging with ideas that bridge past, present, and future.
