Kim is represented by Getty Images. She was also a Founding Member of Lonely Planet Images and was commissioned by LP to photograph their very first 4-color city guides: San Francisco and New York City.

Kim is prolific. She creates branded content for DMOs and is a widely published content creator. She has authored upwards of 45 travel books for most major travel publishers. “Cape Cod, An Explorer’s Guide” continues to be the region’s best-selling guide.

Kim also created two best-selling mobile travel apps: the discerning and definitive “Boston Travel Essentials” and the selective and full-on fun “Cape Cod Travel Essentials.”

Trip planning is overwhelming, time-consuming, and frustrating. Bindu (Sanskrit for a point containing infinite possibilities) was for travelers tired of sifting through online reviews. Kim founded Bindu to create a new purpose-driven paradigm. More than 150 colleagues and seven editors contributed more than 1,200 itineraries to 250 destinations and areas of expertise.

Kim’s recipe for success as Sutro Media’s Chief Content Officer? Equal parts editorial excellence, an author’s insider support for colleagues, and relentless tracking of trends. Hot on the heels of the iPhone and app store launch, Sutro built an expansive platform for regular people to share their expertise. Kim then proceeded to single-handedly shepherd them through the creation process.

The death of print has been highly exaggerated. In four years as Acquisitions Editor at Countryman Press (a division of W.W. Norton), Kim recruited 150 authors to deliver top-notch books, quadrupling the publisher’s Explorer’s Guides, Great Destinations, Backroads & Byways, Great Escapes and photography series. Kim amassed a creative force of 21st Century experts whose books ensured that one publisher – at least – would flourish.
