Irupe Crochet
In 2025 I began building Irupe Crochet, a handmade crochet store created together with a friend.
We wanted a simple, elegant way to showcase and sell her handmade crochet pieces online.
The live site is irupecrochet.com.

A Budget Calculator
During lockdown in 2021 I decided to try and learn some web development, something that I’ve always wanted to do. I chose to develop a simple budgeting calculator, something that I hope to get some use out of, even if no one else does! The website is live at abudgetcalculator.com.
2020
Camera-Robot Calibration Software Package
I developed an automated regime for calibrating a multi-camera system with a UR5 robotic arm, in collaboration with a fellow student. The software is written in Python in a Ubuntu environment and also makes use of the Robotic Operation System (ROS). The package has been used successfully by members of the Australian Centre for Robotic Vision.

Asparagus Harvesting Robot
I spent a year working as a Research Assistant with the Australian Centre for Robotic Vision at the Australian National University. During this time my main project involved the development of a prototype robotic harvester for green asparagus. My role involved developing a vision system that would enable the robotic to detect and localise asparagus spears that were ready for harvest.
2017
Solar Car PCB Designs
I was part of the team for the Australian National University’s (ANU) first entry in the World Solar Car Challenge. Our team successfully completed the race and achieved a top 20 result in a competitive field.
Lytro Remote Shutter and Data Capture
My undergraduate thesis explored the possibilities of utilising the Lytro light-field camera for video applications. I developed a software package that remotely triggered the Lytro while simultaneously moving a robotic arm that was holding the camera. This software allows for the capture of light-field datasets where the position and orientation of the camera is known for each frame.
2016
Hardware and Software Testing Suite
I spent a Summer working within the Scientific Computing section of the Information Management and Technology unit at CSIRO in Canberra. In this role I developed an automated test suite for the hardware and software of the CSIRO’s high performance computers.
