Hello World! I’m Kacie, a BSc student in Electrical Engineering. I am passionate about embedded systems from both a software and hardware perspective.
I am also quite involved with the engineering student clubs, so you might see me around. Feel free to say hi! I hope you enjoy the subject!
Hey! I am a second-year MSc student in Physics with the Experimental Particle Physics research group. When I’m not manipulating equations, I’m usually manipulating videos—I am passionate about cinematography and have also been doing VFX, editing, and 3D animation for a few years now.
I’m also a committee member of the Filmmakers Collaborative at Unimelb.
Senior Fellows
Senior Teaching Fellows are Teaching Fellows with multiple years of experience.
I am a second-year PhD student in Physics with the experimental particle physics research group, working on the Belle II experiment. This is my sixth year working as a computing tutor and 8th semester tutoring COMP10002. Outside of studies, I spend my time indulging in Melbourne food and coffee, doing some baking, and working with the University of Melbourne Postgraduate Physics Society (PPSS).
I studied a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Electronic Engineering at Melbourne University in 2012. I currently work as a professional tutor and tour guide in Melbourne. I look forward to teaching you programming.
I (on the left) am a second-year PhD student in Electrical Engineering and Physics in the OzGrav and Opinion Dynamics groups, studying gravitational waves and modelling opinions physically. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking fancy meals, running long slow distances, brewing and consuming coffee, playing Zelda, and playing fetch with Nano (on the right).
Teaching Fellows
Teaching Fellows lead workshops, support labs, and help keep the learning experience sharp and welcoming.

Bio coming soon.
Hi everyone! I completed my MSc in Mathematics in 2024 and am currently a second-year PhD student researching Security and Robustness of AI and Adversarial Learning. This is my second semester tutoring for Foundations of Algorithms, and I hope that together we can turn it into one of your favourite subjects!
In my free time, I enjoy aerial dance. So, most of the time, you’ll find me spinning upside down on a hoop or hammock.
