Meet the Founders

Healthy Futures Australia is the work of Dr. Kylie Armstrong and Simon Armstrong—a husband-and-wife team with decades of experience shaping healthier communities and systems. They combine their unique strengths to offer a mix of evidence-based research and real-world leadership experience, all while maintaining a personal, collaborative approach to every partnership they build.

Kylie is our expert in behavioral science and systems thinking, while Simon handles the practical side of executive leadership and governance. By blending research with hands-on experience, they create strategies that are easy to use, highly effective, and deeply personal—ensuring that every solution is both forward-thinking and practical.
