Simon Tubey
Content Creator
Simon talks with pictures at Easy Train Now. Having graduated from Murdoch University with two Bachelor of Arts in Photography and in Journalism, he uses his powers for good by creating an array of visual content in front of and behind the camera. Finding the story in everything, and being able to tell it in a way that helps others, is really what opens his eyes every morning. When he’s not creating content for us, he likes to head out into the wild for camping and hiking or relaxing at home, rolling dice and fighting dragons with his mates.
Liam Berryman

Liam studied a Bachelor of Media and Communications, and his role at Easy Train Now allows him to do all the things from his studies he is passionate about. From writing content to creating videos for the platform, his role allows him to do what he loves, all while fulfilling his desire to help others, always learn new things and improve himself wherever possible. Creating something of substance that people will enjoy is his goal in life, and Easy Train has made that a reality.
Tyler Campbell
Content Creator
Tyler studied a Bachelor of Business Marketing and Bachelor of Psychological Sciences. He uses what he learnt in Business studies to create course content for Easy Train Now.

Luckily, working for Easy Train provides him with the opportunity to put that learning into practice. When Tyler isn’t working, he can usually be found studying his passions, art and music, or (more likely) gaming on his PC.
