Kristy

Youth Advisor

I am a History graduate with a strong interest in local, national and international politics. I have served as a Peer Mediator, an Academic Representative, and I am currently supporting the political work of ElectHer. Having supported youth groups, I have evidenced disenfranchisement amongst young people, generating a feeling of helplessness in making changes for the better, which can lead to a cycle of poor mental health. As a result, I look forward to working with Spark to make a positive difference to help young people engage in meaningful conversations and provide practical tools to manage mental health discussions.
