Autism and Pure Strength. Kim is one of the most dedicated and hardworking members of both ScentsAbility Candles and The IDDeal Foundation. For nearly 22 years, she’s proudly worked at Publix as a front service clerk—becoming a beloved and familiar face in her community.

The past few years have brought deep personal loss, with the passing of both of her parents. To ensure Kim could continue living in a safe, loving environment, Co-Founders Bonnie and Denise stepped up as her legal guardians. Now splitting time between their homes, Kim now has lots of people protecting her. 

A proud Chicago native, Kim is a die-hard fan of her hometown sports teams and rocks out to her favorite band, KISS. Her strength, spirit, and loyalty continue to inspire everyone around her.

Kim’s Favorite Candle: Courage

Kim loves: Chicago sports teams; especially her Bears and Cubbies, and the music of KISS!
