A bit about me

About

Who I Am

Hi, I’m Ross, a Physics student at UWS graduating in May 2026. I like exploring the theory behind how things work and using data and code to make sense of systems I’d normally not understand. I’m curious by nature, drawn to structure and logic, and I enjoy the challenge of finding clarity in detail. When I’m not studying or building, I’m probably coaching at the pool or doodling across my whiteboard.

Highlights

  • 2 × Court Medal, top of cohort in both first and second year of Physics.
  • Also hold a BSc in Sports & Exercise Science, blending analytical thinking with performance insight.
  • 20+ years in swimming, coach and former elite athlete at national and Commonwealth trials.
  • 6 years as a lifeguard, developed calm decision-making, teamwork, and communication.
