Dave Brebner grew up with undiagnosed and debilitating Tourette Syndrome. Despite the hardships of his teenage years, as a person who was not going to fit the mould of a standard high school education without difficulty, he has gone on to complete an electrical trade qualification, a Bachelor's Degree of Education in Adult Vocational and Workplace Training, and two Master's Degrees in Educational Neuroscience and Education and Career Development, enabling him to engage in meaningful and inclusive discussions that cater to diverse audiences. As well as being a full-time teacher for TAFE NSW, he regularly presents motivational talks to groups of young people.

Dave lives in New South Wales, Australia, and is a husband and father of six.
