Join Our Team! 

Rami wears a few hats at Space Australia (founder, MD and editor) and is located in Sydney - covering stories across the city and NSW. 

He often spends his weekend hanging out with his little doggo mate, Max (Jack Russell) and is passionate about pulsars; gravitational waves and supermassive black holes (from an astrophysics perspective) - but also loves supporting diversity, citizen sciences, and Mexican food. 

When travelling, Rami prefers the more remote, mountain regions having climbed the summit of Kilimajaro and been to Everest basecamp. 

Rami is also currently in his second year Masters of Astronomy (Astrophysics) with Swinburne University of Technology and comes from a business/digital background of building websites, apps, social media etc. for several agencies across NSW Government for the last 5 years, and beyond that a history in the digital space from the mid-2000s.

Amy is one of our SpaceAus Reporters and spends most of her time between Canberra and New Zealand, covering stories and events from these regions.  

A lover of the great outdoors and nature, Amy has worked on Webby Award-winning Citizen Science digital programs that empowered young people to get back into National Parks and learn about local indigenous cultures, fauna, and flora. She also has a soft spot for cats (especially the sassy ones) and will always be up for a delicious bowl of pasta. 

She really loves Earth Observation related space topics; space law; the advancement of satellite/CubeSat technology; the space start-up eco-system and of course the rapidly evolving commercial space sector. 

Amy's background has been working in the digital sphere for a number of years and across a variety of projects and roles ranging from the government sector through to the start-up scene in multiple cities across Australia.

Fiona (or as we like to call her - just "Fi") is Space Australia's Creative Designer - having put together the beautiful concepts you see on our platform.

Based in Sydney, Fi loves books, art and walking around. With an initial interest in fine arts from a young age, she studied Visual Communication at UTS to explore practical applications of creativity to brands, products and experiences. And while she's not fully ambidextrous, Fi learned to write her first language with her right hand, even though she is actually left-handed.

Fi is a fan of science fiction, as a way of imagining possible futures of humanity's relationship with the greater universe.

Currently a design consultant in visual and interaction design, Fi is working with a range of Australian and international enterprises.
