She is also an independent consultant regarding Title IX and gender equity in youth sports. Kim has over a decade of experience as a nonprofit Title IX attorney, including with Legal Aid at Work’s Fair Play for Girls in Sports project. She served as Director of the Gender Equity (Women and Girls) Initiative at Positive Coaching Alliance advancing sports-based gender equity for youth, coaches, schools, youth sports stakeholders, and community programs. Kim is an expert on sport-based gender equity and Title IX advocacy for equity-spurring legislation having served as a member of the review panel for the Women’s Sports Foundation report: “50 Years of Title IX: We’re Not Done Yet.” 

Since graduating from law school, Kim has practiced a mixture of Title IX, employment, and housing law with an emphasis on equity and anti-discrimination systems-level change. She received her B.A. from Brown University, double concentrating in Public Policy and Sociology where she also played for the varsity women’s volleyball team. Before law school, Kim worked in Washington D.C. in the U.S. Senate and for the nonprofit National League of Cities.
