She is extremely hardworking, particularly during her academic studies, and she strives to always give back to the community in a variety of helpful and inspiring ways, as was seen throughout her time at St Catherine's College, UWA. Moreover, her recent work as a content writer for an entertainment website is fresh, well-written and thoroughly entertaining. I would highly recommend Kirby for any position, as she has the ability to naturally arise to the occasion when presented with something she has passion for.
