The thought of starting a new chapter of my education at a place where I didn’t know anyone was daunting. But soon I started to realise that studying something I was truly passionate about made the whole thing less scary.
On my first day at Swinburne, I sat down in the first class of the day, my computing class, only to realise I was the only female student. I started to wonder if I was even in the right class, however soon after I realised the lack of women studying computer science would lead me to keep motivated to further the diversity in STEM related courses.
As the first semester progressed, I began to wonder if my choice of studying a double degree of Computer Science/Games and Interactivity was a mistake, as I had to learn the content of two courses simultaneously. However, knowing that I will graduate with two degrees and a major in Games Development maintained my excitement and commitment.
My time at Ivanhoe Girls’ taught me how to discipline myself in my studies and strive to study a course that may seem out of ordinary to most, although to me is something that brings the utmost enjoyment.

Just six months ago, the idea of studying in Tasmania hadn’t even left the ‘fantasy’ stage. Now, here I am, by my totally unbiased opinion, sailing happily in the best engineering degree in Australia.
My time at Ivanhoe Girls’ has been invaluable in placing me where I am today. From diving headfirst into the co-curricular program since Year 7,to the enthusiasm and support I received in taking the opportunity to voyage across Bass Strait during Year 12, I’ve always been encouraged to push the boundaries of possibility. This course flaunted not only a world class degree, but also presented away to combine my love of the ocean with a career in STEM, and I couldn’t possibly turn away from such a prize.
My current voyage therefore brings me to my course at the Australian Maritime College in Launceston. Though it’s tough, I’m loving the multifaceted challenges and the resultant close-knit community of students and staff. We are all pushed to seek innovative and efficient approaches to any problem and remain afloat through issue after issue. I’m still also throwing myself into every opportunity, and am now a regular member of both the local sword fighting group and the frisbee club.
I can’t imagine having taken this leap if it weren’t for the support of all of the connections I have from my time at Ivanhoe Girls’.
