Ms Kasia Klar
AI Educator and Technology Specialist
Kasia holds a Bachelor of Information Technology and has a strong interest in artificial intelligence, game development and creative technology. Her passion for STEM began at school, where she participated in an Oxbridge summer programme at Cambridge to study AI and travelled to the United States to attend Space Camp.
During university, Kasia initially studied Computer Science with a major in AI. Through this experience, she discovered a particular interest in applying AI across different disciplines. She now hopes to contribute to Adelaide’s independent game development sector by using AI to create more immersive and engaging experiences.
At AICAMP, Kasia encourages students to remain curious, embrace new opportunities and learn through hands-on exploration. Her advice to young learners is simple: say yes to opportunities—you never know where they may lead or what they might inspire you to discover.
Ms Jacqueline
AI Educator and Psychology Student
Jacqueline is pursuing a Bachelor of Psychology at Adelaide University. With a strong interest in human behaviour and the ways technology shapes how people think, learn and interact, she brings a distinctive human-centred perspective to STEM and AI education.
As an educator at AICAMP, Jacqueline is passionate about inspiring young people to explore the subjects that excite them, remain curious and develop confidence in their own ideas. She encourages students to enjoy the learning process, work hard and build meaningful relationships with the people around them.
Her advice to young learners is to recognise the good in their lives, practise gratitude and remain true to themselves: never lose sight of who you are simply to please others.
