After initially training as a primary school teacher in South Africa, Kim studied further and continued with her career as a learning specialist teacher. She emigrated to New Zealand in 2003. Kim has studied art throughout her life and values creativity.
Her strong belief that growth and change is possible within a well-designed programme, tailored to suit their needs and wholistic in approach, has contributed to their success.
