Liam Kennedy

I joined CHOICE in March 2022, with a background in production and journalism gained through work in daily news radio and podcasting. I have a Bachelor of Communication (Journalism) and Bachelor of Arts in International Studies from the University of Technology Sydney. I also completed exchange studies at Gifu University, Japan. As a journalist with the Editorial & Investigations team, I create accessible content that answers consumers' most burning questions, from which scams to be aware of and how to save money, to whether new services and products are worth using and how the latest developments in consumer news could affect them. You can find me on Twitter and LinkedIn.
