Hi, my name is Dieter Knierim.
I'm 22 years old and
and I just finished my bachelor of communications
at U.T.S.
I'm now starting my Bachelor of Science at Maquarie
I do this because it helps me with my dyslexia
as it keeps my brain active and moving all the time.
I'm very fortunate today that we have technology that
assists me with my dyslexia where computers have reading software.
Outside of Uni, I work at a production company that I
started with my brother seven year ago.
I love doing video editing, production and filming.
I've taught adults with disabilities in remote communities
where their films finally made it on to indigenous television stations.
I've also had the opportunity to interview some incredible people
such as Germaine Greer, John Howard, Stephen DuPont
and Miss Zara Stardust, Miss Naked Pole-Dancer 2013
I have travelled around Australia to film Aboriginal people,
from thirty different nations, to tell their story
about their disability.
This was part of an exhibition that was shown at
the United Nations in New York and Geneva.
SBS bought the rights to use this for interstitials 
between commercials and TV shows.
I've worked on many different projects; about women in sport,
Aboriginal veterans, LGBQI communities and women who've
experienced violence.
The latest project that I've been working on
has taken me to Korea, Indonesia, Ecuador, Guatemala, Canada
and the USA, in just the last twelve months. It's been awesome!
I've also travelled with UTS and the department of Foreign Affairs and Trade
to Jordan in last November,
I was able to create content for SBS live.
The trip was just incredible and it was really surprising to know
that Aleppo was only a six hour drive away from where were staying.
I'm about to show interviews that I did for the City of Sydney and
and the Head On festival about women who've been through the
criminal justice system. I heard some really awesome and wild stories.
Just recently I finished and internship at the ABC as an editor
for the show You Can't Ask That.
It was an amazing experience where I was able to see the inner workings
of the ABC as an intern.
At university I also do cheerleading which I find is an awesome 
opportunity to learn skills about teamwork and collaboration...
And, also, because I get to lift up girls.
It's a sport where you have to rely on everyone to make sure that you're
all doing the correct role, and there's lots of respect for every persons
individual choice of what they do.
We've been able to create a good team this year
and we're going to go to Nationals this year, we hope.
I hope you've enjoyed hearing what I've said
I'd love to have the opportunity to work with you.
