Naratorn PisedtasalasaiMaster Student/Software Engineer

I was born in Christchurch, grew up in Bangkok, went to school in Auckland, and ended up in Sydney. I'm still finding my way and trying to enjoy the ride.

I studied my bachelor's in computer science and digital music at the University of Sydney, and now doing a Master of Engineering (Software). My passion is to use my skills to make the world a better place, whether it's building an app for people to play sports, running a charity for mental health, performing in a band to entertain the crowd. Even if it's a little thing, it can go a long way.

Away from a screen, I play bass and sing in an indie band called Could Be Tuesday. I also spent two years singing in a barbershop a cappella society, I grew up as a music kid and it's one of those things that keep me going.

I also volunteer with Vinnies, at the Redfern Vinnies Support Centre. That usually means some combination of barbecues, database work, organising things, and doing the jobs that aren't particularly exciting but still need someone to do them.

I speak English and Thai, can hold my own in Mandarin, and spent two years learning Spanish and a tad bit of Italian (basically just Ciao now).

I've done an unusual combination of jobs. Music tutoring, helping touring crews pack down stages in the rain, digital marketing, and now working part time at a dental clinic as a dental assistant. None of those jobs have much to do with software. All of them have given me experience that I could not have gotten elsewhere.
