HIS INSPIRING CAREER JOURNEY

A series of devastating family events led Kane to Boys’ Town (now Dunlea Centre) in Sydney, a secondary school for at-risk youths. There, he learned important life skills, practiced discipline and routine, and formed his most critical values. In adulthood, he returned to Dunlea Centre in a much different capacity, running programs and joining the board as a foundational member. 

Growing up in a low-income household with a single mother and multiple siblings, Kane entered the adult world at a financial and educational handicap. After working in unfulfilling jobs, he left Sydney to pursue a position as a bauxite mine in the Northern Territory, where he moonlighted as a stock trader. Eventually, he learned how to play the wealth game through self-education and hands-on experience. He then completed a diploma of financial planning and pursued a career as a financial adviser. 

GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY

As his way of giving back, Kane currently serves on the Dunlea Centre board and has volunteered for youth group sports and education programs under PCYC Australia since 2015.

In 2017, he started to mentor teenagers on financial literacy through Project Youth, and has been involved in the foster care system, offering his time and care to those in need.

Kane is a firm believer that everyone from all walks of life deserve the opportunity to learn about financial literacy, and it has been his life’s mission to be a driver of that goal.
