Her path has included long retreat, study of the suttas, and practice in Asia, and she now lives as a lay contemplative. Kim serves as a teacher and author dedicated to offering classical Dharma in a modern context. Her education includes a PhD in physics and a master’s degree in environmental sustainability.
