Her work combines financial expertise with the ability to convene people, mobilize resources, and organize initiatives that respond to community needs.
Kim holds a Master of Business Administration in Finance from Trinity Washington University and a Bachelor of Science in Organizational Management from Columbia College. An AmeriCorps VISTA alumna, she brings a foundation in community service and capacity building, complemented by professional experience in training, facilitation, financial management, and nonprofit leadership.
In 2010, Kim founded Journey to Your Promised Land, Inc. (JTYPL) to address economic and social barriers through sustainable, community-centered programming. She has brought together corporations, nonprofits, educators, civic leaders, entrepreneurs, and volunteers to advance workforce development, youth leadership, financial education, advocacy, and international humanitarian initiatives. Her leadership spans program design and delivery, financial planning, fundraising, community organizing, and partnerships that turn shared priorities into action.
Today, Kim is building on that foundation through JTYPL’s Opportunity Ecosystem, an integrated cohort experience that helps emerging entrepreneurs develop their leadership capabilities, strengthen their ventures, and prepare to pursue capital for projects that transform communities. By connecting participants with mentorship, financial knowledge, investors, funders, and strategic partners, she is advancing a vision in which bold ideas have the relationships and resources needed to create lasting community impact.
