Kim has worked in front of and behind the camera, first as a child actor who hit her SAG eligibility before hitting puberty. Then as a freelance camera assistant on productions in New York City. Her first love was cinematography, followed closely by hanging out on the backs of trucks.

She is a Ph.D. dropout with a master’s degree in art history. She left academia when she realized television was probing deeper into the complexities of the human condition than her conference papers ever could. So she quit her job — and gave up her shot at guaranteed employment for life — to spend more time doing improv comedy. Now she writes stories about women who make similarly questionable life choices.

Her screenwriting has placed at the Academy Nicholl Fellowship, ScreenCraft Fellowship, Page International Screenwriting Awards, and Austin Film Festival. Her 10-minute play, My Monster, a dark comedy about social anxiety, won the audience award for Best Play at The Short Play Festival at The Players Theatre in New York.

She trained in improv and sketch comedy at UCB and The PIT, and she's spent countless nights playing make-believe in basements across New York City. She's also an alum of the UCLA Professional Program in screenwriting.

When not sitting behind her desk, she's either swimming, biking, running, or lifting heavy things. Oh, and she is and always will be a New Yorker to her bones.
