Interests

Kim's interests range from sports to science fiction. An avid soccer fan, Kim cheers for her beloved Arsenal during the Premiere League season and her hometown heroes Atlanta United during the MLS months.

Away from the football pitch, Kim's hobbies fall to the nerdier side of things as she enjoys tabletop gaming, video games, music and art.
