On episode 70 of the podcast I yarn with Corey Tutt. Corey is a Kamilaroi man from Nowra on the New South Wales south coast. As a kid, he dreamed of becoming a zookeeper and in high school he developed a love of STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) subjects. But unlike the arts and sport, he found there was little encouragement for Aboriginal people to pursue careers in STEM. 


In 2018, while working as a research assistant for the University of Sydney, Corey founded DeadlyScience, a not-for-profit organisation that aims to provide science books and telescopes to remote schools in Australia and connects young Indigenous people with mentors to encourage their participation in STEM subjects. In 2020, Corey was named the NSW Young Australian of the Year, and a Human Rights Hero by the Australian Human Rights Commission. 


He continues to work tirelessly to send STEM resources to Indigenous communities and show First Nations kids that STEM is for them. The organisation has even attracted international attention, with Corey presenting at Harvard and Oxford universities.


We yarn about all of his deadly achievements and contributions to helping Indigenous children and communities in Australia. A really inspirational yarn!
