Business Analyst, Social Media Agency Owner, Patron Princess, Twitter Queen, Businesswoman, Blogger, Model, Socialite, Entrepreneur, Presenter, Thinker … At a tender 27 years old, Kirsty is accomplished, well-travelled and highly educated. A BBA graduate, Kirsty went on to obtain the highly coveted PDM from Wits Business School in 2010, the same year that she was selected as a member of FHM’s Hot 100. She opened her own business in 2012, a social media agency called Stir, while also launching her blog. Stir has grown rapidly and the company now works with several major brands such as Edcon, Accenture and Lodestone and has also consulted with larger corporates such as MTN, Anglo and Riches. But true to her love of the underdog, and her passion for entrepreneurship, she also consults with several smaller companies and clients on a regular basis.
When not swimming in the sea of the Internet, Kirsty can be found surfing of the ocean persuasion, chasing down the slopes for some snowboarding, watching her favourite sports, or reading anything from African politics to whimsical fiction. She also writes, presents for Vodacom Now and has been added an honourary member of the South African Innovator’s Network.
