While Kim was working as a Graphic Designer in New York she happened to see an Illustration portfolio that was being passed around the office. Having never realized that one could actually get paid to draw, Kim quickly realized that she was meant to be an Illustrator. Kim decided to head back to school. After receiving an MFA degree from the Savannah College of Art and Design, Kim has been busy working as a Freelance Illustrator, a job in which she describes as the best job in the world.
Kim works out of her studio in her 110 year old house in Northampton, Massachusetts.
