Rob Joseph is a co-founder of Anti Ordinary, a startup that have developed a beanie that is as safe as a helmet. Intrigued? So were we!

Rob studied an undergrad of Medical Engineering, with the hope to combine his love for sport and engineering into a career. Originally eyeing off prosthetics for sport, his attention turned to brain protection after experiencing first-hand the pain points of brain protection in action sports. Rob teamed up with his co-founder Brodie to change the way we protect brains across all categories, starting in the unlikely market of Snowsports – and thus, Anti Ordinary was born.

This episode is hosted by two of The University of Queensland's Women in Engineering student leaders; Jessica Rock and Kathleen Cox.
