Hayley Spencer-Smith

Hayley can manage challenging teenagers, navigate family life and solve most crises, but ask her to read an instruction manual or explain the rules of a game and her brain immediately clocks off. She sings confidently along to songs using entirely invented lyrics and shares her home with several cats whose main hobby appears to be organised crime against local wildlife. Somehow, it all works.

Kirin Ali

Kirin loves 3 things the most: Rom-Coms, Food and Anywhere she can swim, that’s why most weekends you’ll find her in the park with her friends, near a big pond, with a bagel in one hand and a matcha in the other. Her biggest strength is she never forgets a face, she loves meeting new people and making new friends, but her biggest weakness is remembering names, we wouldn’t be surprised if Barbara from Abbott Elementary was based on Kirin herself.
