Kim is a United States Navy veteran. She spent over 20 years in healthcare including more than 10 years as an Advanced Practice Psychiatric Nurse. She spent the 10 years prior to starting Spark as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner in private practice and mental health centers treating all ages. She is licensed to treat patients in Arizona & Colorado. Additionally, she has held a position as adjunct faculty for University of Colorado Denver Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner Program. 

Kim envisioned starting a practice where she would utilize technology to provide evidence based treatments including medication management, psychotherapy, complementary medicine and lifestyle management. She wanted to improve the user experience and provide care in the most comfortable setting possible, oftentimes in the comfort of their own homes. 

She imagined a stress free visit where the client could enjoy a cup of coffee on the sofa after a simple check in, get medications delivered straight to their home and be provided access to their Providers for questions, updates and assistance, with no more calling the office, being on hold and waiting 3 days for a callback. 

Kim enjoys meeting new people, and helping people find optimal mental wellness through diet, exercise, stress reduction, lifestyle management, medication management and complementary medicine.  She also enjoys listening to classic rock music, reading all types of fiction, cooking vegetarian foods, and joining Zumba classes.
