A little more about Kim.

Kim grew up in the small ‘’village’’ of Tyne Valley, with her older brother. Always racing their way down the hill on their bicycle any chance they could get. If Kim wasn’t out throwing a softball in the summertime, she was at her Grandparents family cottage, in Grand River. Always involved in some sort of sport, no matter what the season, Kim was always busy with hockey, softball or intramural sports. Kim loves her four fur babies, and her niece and nephew as if they were her own. Kim is always a busy bee, with something on the go.

Kim is very passionate about working within the community, as she takes pride in guiding our young minds and being a support system for their families. Kim provides a positive and bubbly attitude when tackling any task.

Since 2012, Kim has worked in Child Care, Group Homes, Mental Health Associations, Long Term Care and the Public School’s Branch. Each career has given Kim, the knowledge and experience she has today.
