I received an award in New York City from the American Australian Association: the Next Generation Leadership Award. As a result, they're planting a tree in my honour in New York City. As part of my acceptance speech, the aubot team programmed a robot “Shazza” to have a conversation with me, bringing a bit of Australian humour to NYC. Check it out! (The conversation with Shazza begins at 3:30).
Forbes named me a world's top 50 woman in tech & 30 Under 30. I founded Robogals and Aipoly and was Young Australian of the Year 2012. Currently working on robotics company Aubot. I'm the youngest Member of the Order of Australia (AM) and I give speeches around the world.
