Kimbre is a meticulous Project Manager and Strategic Event Marketer with (can’t tell you a number because you’ll guess her age) years experience in corporate events and strategic growth. She builds event programming with humans in mind. Originally from a farm in Washington (State), and after living in New York City she’s learned to add ‘State’ otherwise anyone who hails from the East Coast will assume you mean D.C. Fun fact she is a classically trained singer who also loves to hike, read on the beach and could cook all day if you let her. She is extremely skilled at tripping and can trip over pretty much anything without even trying, including flat ground. It’s a very rare natural skill. She is a Court Appointed Special Advocate for youth in Vancouver, Washington and highly encourages folks to look into volunteering with causes they care about!
