Jumps
Kim stumbled into the sport of track and field late while attending Queen’s University. With a background in gymnastics, she fell in love with pole vault instantly. Finding her way to the national championships (CIS), she decided to continue with PV after graduation. She helped coach the event group and built a life-long friendship with teammate Jen Payne (Couture) in the process. As her own high school didn’t have a track program, she became passionate about introducing athletes to the sport as she began her teaching career at Kingston Collegiate & Vocational Institute. Kim has led KCVI to 3 city championships and many local pole vaulters to success in both Eastern Ontario and Provincial Championships (OFSAA). Together, she and Jen will continue working with those who want to fly…. Helping them reach their greatest heights!
