About Kim

A multi-passionate creative from an early age, Kim grew up singing praises and playing piano, accordion, and saxophone in church. Taking up piano at four years old and competing against adults in classical piano contests by the age of ten, music has always been an important part of Kim’s life. However, it was in 2010 when her brother, Chad, encouraged her to write her own music that she began the journey to develop a growing body of work with a depth that emphasizes her love for Christ and concern for others.

This journey has led to her winning awards such as second place in Woody Guthrie Songwriting Contest, finalist in the USA Songwriting Contest, and division winner in the International Acoustic Music Awards. These awards led to showcases at the Bluebird Cafe, SXSW, and Woodyfest. Her mission in music can be summed up as a desire to point people towards Christ, share a positive message of hope and encouragement, and be a voice for those who have none.

Her debut solo album "Herald", released through NWN Records and Integrated Music Rights, a part of the Integrity Music family, was named one of the Top 12 albums of 2023 by Today's Christian Entertainment. “Herald” features eight original folk-pop songs that offer a variety of sonic approaches while all being heavily rooted in scripture.

Kim was named a “Woody Guthrie Poet” in 2023 for her poem, “You’ll Find Me There,” which later became a song on “Herald”. This poem was published in the competition’s yearly anthology.  

A former Mrs. Massachusetts America, Kim is an accomplished visual artist, painting an image for each song on her “Herald” album. These paintings will be included in Kim’s upcoming book, “Herald Reflections,” which releases later this year.

Kim has rescued dogs and cats for 20 years, is a professional fundraiser whose written proposals have raised over $25 million for nonprofits, and holds a master’s degree in social work and undergraduate degree in business.

She is a regular contributor for “Daily Devotionals” on The Christian Post's online lifestyle magazine, Crossmap.com.
