Kyle is a self-described “polymath” who, in addition to various retail, hospitality and volunteer roles, has worked in various Technical & Support roles over the last 20 years, in which time he has developed an extensive range of knowledge & training across multiple disciplines, qualifications such as a Cert IV in Cybersecurity, ITIL V3 & V4, CCNE L1 & 2, Cert III training & Mentoring, And CertIV Sound & Lighting, to name a few, most of which he undertook while working fulltime in unrelated fields.
He has not only a passion for cybersecurity and technology, but also for Training, Education, Career Development, Youth mentoring (mostly through the Raise Foundation), as well as Child & Youth development / education.
Kyle currently works as a Technical Support Engineer for Mimecast, after leaving his Security Operations role to pursue a cybersecurity career more based around cyber education & awareness training for people both inside and outside of the industry, but also education & awareness training for students at all levels.
Kyle and Craig have a shared passion to help educate & empower children and young adults to better navigate the online world and are coming together to help share this passion with industry peers to help foster a movement in how cyber education is approached both in and out of the classroom or workplace.
