Throughout Kimberly’s time in New York, she worked with a team to paint hardwood floors to look like inlaid stained wood and ivory, created handbag illustrations and managed production, spent time as a technician in Jeff Koons’ sculpture department, restored a Keith Haring mural, made illustrations for the award-winning documentary Slingshot Hip Hop, and managed the front desk of a tattoo shop.

You’ll most likely find her binging design shows, painting or wallpapering or stitching something, neck-deep in research, stretching, or making another mocha.
