Hi there 👋

Here's a little about me!

🔭 I moved from a small town to a capital city convinced I would come out the other end of uni as an engineer. But when I got here I realised there were so many other interesting things! 1 Ba. Physics, 1 Ba. Mathematics, Graduate Certificate in research, with a neuroscience topic, and 3 fluent-ish programming languages later and I still want to do everything when I "grow up".
🌱 The majority of my programming experience is in R and MATLAB, and now python. I would say I am more comfortable now in python than in MATLAB, despite my studies being very MATLAB focussed. I've worked various roles using R for statistical analyses, production of educational materials and web app development but now work as a data scientist for a medical tech start up in Brisbane, WearOptimo, working predominantly with python.
👯 In my spare time, I like to make art. The majoirty of my work is geometric, with a lot of dot work for the shading. I have hosted one small exhibition and you can check out my art at @_lameystringerdraws on instagram.
🤔 I have dabbled in roles/post graduate study in the area of computational neuroscience, and I continue to strive towards this field in future. There's something about the brain...
💬 Ask me about R, shiny apps, anomalous diffusion, fractional calculus, data management and manipulation and did I mention shiny apps?
😄 Pronouns: she/her
⚡ Fun fact: I taught myself how to bind books and now I try to make my own notebooks and journals!

Code for high school mathematical methods application

specialistmathematics

Some teaching tools were produced to help teachers teach unit 4 of the Australian high school curriculum. This repo contains the code used to produce the application for specialist mathematics.

An application the builds a study plan based on what your role is, what you want to know, how much you know now, and how much you'd like to know. All courses contained in the search list here are based around a central goal of upskilling in the field of using remote sensing for agriculture monitoring. See the README for info on structure and methodology.
