I'm currently a volunteer research assistant at the University of Western Sydney where I work on projects under Dr. Tara Hamilton. I've just finished my Masters of Engineering (Research) course at the University of Technology, Sydney.

I've been contributing to Fedora for almost five years now. It started with Rahul Sundaram taking a font packaging workshop. I've come a long way since then, but am still quite a learner. If there's anything I can help you with, feel free to ping me either over e-mail or one of the IM channels.
