Our team is conducting multi-disciplinary research on the application of artificial intelligence to human gait analysis. Specifically, we are developing and evaluating machine learning models that identify people based on how they apply force through their feet while walking. Previously, as part of my Honours project, I contributed to a research project on the mechanical and energetic effects of altered arch stiffness during human locomotion. I am passionate about research areas at the intersection of Human and Computer Sciences, such as Artificial Intelligence, Biomechanics and Biometrics.

In 2019, I was a practical demonstrator for first and second year Biomechanics at the University of Queensland. I tutored 120+ students and assisted with examination marking. Prior to that, I tutored small groups at University of Queensland colleges and assisted over two-dozen independent students.

I love teaching because it allows me to meet new people and engage in mutual learning and inspiration through the sharing of knowledge and ideas (not just on content, but also on the philosophy and methodology of learning). Teaching is a great way to encourage new patterns of thought and behaviour that can redefine our lives.
