Kristina Agustin

Founder | AI Practitioner

Master of Artificial Intelligence (cont.)
Certified AI Consultant | CPD-Certified AI Trainer
DPA | ISM Internal Auditor | Crowd and Crisis Management
BA/LLB | Graduate Diploma of Legal Practice

I help maritime leaders adopt AI securely and with purpose, working internationally. I grew up on the Central Coast of NSW and began at sea on international superyachts. Those early years taught me teamwork, discipline and discretion. Two decades later, I have supported more than 90 businesses and 500 crew with contracts, compliance and operations.

I am the founder of Southern Sky AI, an award-winning digital transformation partner for the superyacht and maritime sectors. We guide organisations to practical outcomes in AI strategy, security and workflow design.

My training spans law and technology. I hold a BA/LLB from the University of Newcastle, a Graduate Diploma of Legal Practice from ANU, executive studies in AI Strategy at UC Berkeley, AWS AI Practitioner certification, and I am completing a Master of Artificial Intelligence.

I served on the board of the International Superyacht Society and continue to advise on large yacht operations and risk. My focus is to bring maritime insight and modern AI together so teams work safer, faster and with confidence.
