KIM’S STORY

WIFE. MOM. WELLNESS ENTREPRENEUR.

Kim has worn several hats through the years. Starting out in corporate America, in the pharmaceutical industry, Kim has always had a passion for health and wellness. After spending 12+ years working at various levels for Johnson & Johnson and Abbott Labs, Kim married her husband Artis and a few months later relocated to Singapore for the next 2.5 years. 

Later, as a new mom to Hunter, Kim discovered several challenges in finding balance, staying fit, providing healthy meals for herself and her family, and finding time for rest and restoration. It was during this time she realized in order to be the best for her family she needed to take steps to be the best version of herself. Exercise and healthy eating became a priority and not an option. She quickly realized that her family modeled her behavior and that continued to fuel her motivation and efforts.  

Time and again, Kim was told that life (and her body) would never be the same after having children and getting older. Although there was some truth to those words, she made a commitment to always strive to stay focused on her goals, even when it was difficult. That commitment has led her to be in her best shape yet. In 2019, Kim competed in her first bikini competition at the age of 43.

Fast forward through several moves and now becoming a family of 4 with Hendrix, Kim decided to channel her passion for health and wellness and corporate training into a new career. She was certified as a personal trainer through the National Academy of Science and Medicine (NASM) in 2017 and launched her personal training business in 2018. Kim has trained and mentored many clients through the years (1:1, small groups, virtual) and loves that she gets to work in her passion every day. She lives by the mantra “it's never too late to become the best version of yourself”. Forever Fit is a testament to this belief.

CLIENT TESTIMONIAL

Being a workout enthusiast, I can honestly say Kim is the best weight and body trainer I have worked with. She cares and keeps you accountable. Her weight and body exercises are always uniquely designed to help keep your body challenged. Kim believes incorrect form and safety as well so she will always have a modification to an exercise if needed. Kim is a trainer for all levels of fitness.

So grateful to work with her!
