Kim is an illustrator, painter, and surface designer. Her work can be found through illustrations, packaging, clothing, magazines, and murals around the world.
Kim was always on the move as a military child, and is still on the move as a military spouse. She’s spent extended periods in Hawai’i and New York City, and currently lives in Las Vegas, Nevada with her husband Bryce.
Her work is greatly influenced by places in the world she finds herself, often inspired by pops of color, cute dogs, delicious food, and the local natural landscape. No matter the project, her main focus is to spread joy, and to create a colorful, silly, and harmonious version of the world she wishes to live in.
