Kirstin was raised on a cane farm in Central Queensland by parents, Trish and Ian. She is one of three siblings with brother Reece and sister, Alyscia.

Kirstin currently plays for Perth Womens Premier 1's team Suburban Lions, and plays an integral part in their inability to score up front. Kirstin's ability to dramatise her efforts by falling over when attempting to make even the simplest of passes has seen her make a name for herself at this prestigious hockey club located in the golden triangle.
