For me, this year’s NAIDOC week theme is about how as an Indigenous man I can take action and make a difference. It’s cool to see how you can go from being a student learning from the engineers to being that person who presents to the students. It was interesting to think I can be a part of a project like that. There’s a bunch of different Indigenous art going in there that needs to be preserved and kept safe. In high school, I was good at math and physics and a teacher suggested engineering. My favourite project is the new Indigenous Cultures Centre, Tarrkarri, which is being built in Adelaide. It is great to be able to work on something that connects my engineering passion with my culture.
