Freda Werdiger

Freda Werdiger

Freda Werdiger is a Physicist specialising in physical and x-ray optics, with expertise in theoretical, computational and experimental elements of optical problem solving. Her prior work involves fundamental contributions to the field of singular optics and our understanding of the interaction between light and matter with a particular interest in optical speckle and x-ray diffraction.

At Monash University, Freda worked in the core team at the Laboratory for Dynamic Imaging, developing methods for x-ray based particle-image velocimetry (XV) on lightweight scanners. Freda developed methods for the quantification of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease using XV in collaboration with the Adelaide Women's and Children's Hospital. Other XV-based collaborations include Cedars Sinai Hospital and the University of Tasmania.

Currently, as a Research Fellow for the University of Melbourne, her work involves the application of advanced image analytics - including Deep Learning and Machine Learning - to develop tools to diagnose and develop insights for acute ischemic stroke as part of the Australian Stroke Alliance. Areas of focus are clot detection in CT angiography, segmentation of stroke infarct on MR diffusion-weighted imaging, and prediction of tissue fate using acute CT perfusion imaging data. She is based in the Melbourne Brain Centre at the Royal Melbourne Hospital.

Valeria Manini

Valeria Manini

PM per 10 anni in varie software house dell'Emilia Romagna, poi la voglia di cambiare, e sopratutto di non vedere le stesse dinamiche, mi ha portato a cercare un lavoro completamente nuovo, molto fuori dalla mia comfort zone. Imparare tutto da zero, districarmi tra problematiche nuove era lo stimolo di cui avevo bisogno. Fortunatamente (e inaspettatamente) non ho perso l'affinità al mondo software: ora però sono il cliente ed i miei progetti hanno tutti a che fare con i motori industriali in un'azienda che è il vanto di Reggio Emilia.
Orgogliosa di questo switch, orgogliosa della mia azienda.

Scott Heffield

Scott Heffield

Scott Heffield first saw the Agile Manifesto shortly after it was published. Scott had been a software developer for over 10 years at that time, and the ideas put forth in the Manifesto felt very familiar. It was as if someone had been inside his head and had compiled and improved a number of thoughts and conclusions he had about software development. With the opportunity of being a developer on several well-performing agile teams, Scott quickly aligned with the productivity, empowerment, and fun of being part of a team which finds that high performing sweet spot. Because of this personal experience, Scott is now passionate about helping to form and grow high performing teams. Scott is certified as a SAFe Advanced ScrumMaster and regularly consults with teams and companies looking to improve their output. He finds that the principles of performance and culture span far beyond the realm of just software development and enjoys applying them to other areas of life.

In his role as VP of Delivery at Veracity Solutions, Scott leads a team of Veracity Principals and Practice Leads to provide guidance and leadership across Veracity’s consultant teams with the goal of helping our clients truly build “better software every time”.

Scott brings over 30 years of Information Technology skill and experience across various roles, industries, and platforms.
