Kim released the following press release:

My parents brought me to Brevard County when I was 8 years old. In the 46 years since, I’ve witnessed changes across the county, from Mims to Micco. I love where I live and I have decided it is time to serve its residents, my friends and my family.

I want to be a part of guiding Brevard’s future while truly considering the input from the people who call Brevard home. I will have a sensible perspective when dealing with regulations surrounding the health of our lagoon, the need for improved infrastructure, our amazing first responders and the future of Brevard’s children. At the same time, I intend to lead with a strong conservative approach to the budget on all of these issues.

I’m excited to represent the residents of District 3 and look forward to understanding their concerns and ensuring their voices are heard.

Always respectfully,

Kim

Kim is a senior insurance professional with a Bachelor of Arts in psychology from The Ohio State University.
