Rob Pyne: Champion of the Underdog.

Rob Pyne BA (JCU). , LLB (QUT). ,
After leaving school, Pyne worked for the Public Trustee, where he was employed until breaking his neck in an accident in 1991, becoming a quadriplegic. He then decided to study to assist him to re-enter the work force, completing a BA in History and Politics at JCU and a Law Degree at QUT.
Rob Pyne was elected to Cairns Regional Council in 2008 as Councillor for Division 3 and Re-Elected in 2012. At the 2015 state election he was elected to represent the electorate of Cairns in the State Parliament. His focus on climate change, new technologies and making Cairns Australia’s ‘Silicon Valley’ was not rewarded by his electorate, which did not re-elect Pyne for another term.
Humiliated by the loss, Pyne became somewhat of a recluse, turning his focus to trading in cryptocurrency, something he promotes using his vast following on social media.
