Kim grew up in Philadelphia and attended Brown University. She is now based in New Orleans, where she lives with her pup Junebug. When she isn’t thinking about em-dashes, she is likely thinking about the apocalypse, her next snack, or the best/worst animals (ask her about blue whales sometime).
Kim’s work focuses on wellness, lifestyle, pop culture, beauty, relationships, queerness and identity.
