Drawn to Henry County’s unity and small-town feel, she made it her home—and it became her calling.

She has also mentored students and supported literacy and youth programs while organizing community safety and beautification efforts like shred events, cleanups, and recycling initiatives.
Kim earned her Doctorate in Organizational Leadership and leads with servant leadership—showing up, listening first, and building practical solutions that prioritize people.
