A native of St. Paul Minnesota, Kim enrolled at the University of Minnesota and followed her strong interest in policy, by majoring in both Political Science and Global Studies, with a minor in Arabic.
Kim’s interest in advocacy was sparked when she got her first post-college job working as an organizer at the Service Employees International Union. Inspired by the meaningful work she was doing, Kim decided to move to Washington D.C. to pursue a career in advocacy. She worked as a staff assistant for Representative Betty McCollum, before moving to The Feighan Team, where she is currently their Director of Policy and Advocacy.
Kim is pursuing a Master’s degree in Public Policy from the George Washington University, hoping to dive into policy analysis, as well as gain more rigorous research tools for her work in the future. “It’s more important than ever to have folks working in the advocacy space who are following in the footsteps of Bryce Harlow and his legacy of honesty and bipartisanship,” Kim said. She is grateful for the support and mentorship provided by the Fellowship.
