Biography:

Kim was the Illinois State University coordinator for the IBCA Hall of Fame banquets for nearly three decades prior to her retirement. She helped with banquets at Bone Student Center and Redbird Arena, serving as the backbone for the catering services.

Kim delayed her retirement for a few months so she would be able to assist with the 50th anniversary IBCA in 2022. Her service to the IBCA has been above and beyond the normal vendor relationship.
