With 25 years of experience spanning film, television, digital signage, digital media, technology, ad sales and marketing, together with a tirelessly vibrant presence, Kim is a force both on and off the podium and has become a popular speaker and panel chair at leading industry events. 

Kim studied at the University of Central Florida, where she majored in Communications with a focus on Corporate Business and Development by The Nightwing Group as they launched PetCARE TV, a combination Place-Based media Channel in Veterinary offices and on Cable TV. Shortly after the Cable Channel was sold to Animal Planet, Kim assumed total responsibility for Trade Shows and Trade Advertising on the Veterinary Place-Based media network. When Nightwing was acquired by Entertainment Arts, Kim was asked to run the advertising sales department as well, and shortly thereafter was given total marketing and sales responsibility. A few years later, when PetCARE TV was sold to a group of investors in LA, Kim went along to supervise the transition of PetCARE TV from a DVD Place-Based Video Network in Veterinary offices to a digitally delivered broadband network and to launch a sister channel in pediatric offices called KidCARE TV.  As the company grew and launched additional DOOH networks, Kim led the team to add all social media platforms, web sites, and other marketing technologies.

Kim currently has certification in IoT from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Contract Law from Harvard Law School, Digital Marketing, social media and E-Commerce from Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. She continues to stay on the leading edge in her field by expanding her knowledge in technology, currently working towards her Micro Master in Artificial Intelligence from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
