Kirsty’s dedication to clear and effective communication and education that empowers people is the through line of her career, which has spanned roles in corporate television, investor relations, corporate communication and change management for some of Australia’s largest organisations.

 

She understands how to harness the power of words, and for the past nine years, Kirsty has been working with teenagers as a secondary school English, History and Business teacher in the Northern Rivers of NSW, where she has seen first-hand the impact of unfettered social media and internet usage amongst young people. Her time in high schools has taught her how to engage, entertain and engross young people, and she quickly builds rapport with her humour and knowledge.

 

As a mother of two teenagers, she has had a unique window into the challenges of both parenting and teaching teenagers in the 21st century and brings this insight to her work.
