His Mother thought she won when she filled out the birth certificate. His Father won by always calling him Kim. This all happened at Lutheran Hospital in Des Monies Iowa in 1951. While working on his degree in Wildlife Management at the University of Alaska he began working for the Alaska Department of Fish and Game's Commercial Fisheries Division in 1973. He continued working for ADF&G until he retired in 1995. He and his wife then roamed North America living out of a pickup and 28' trailer for two years before settling down on a small farm outside Lucas Iowa in 1998. Kim then volunteered for many organizations including Farm Bureau and the Iowa D.N.R.'s Fisheries Bureau. This resulted in his appointment to the Iowa Natural Resources Commission in 2000 where he continues to serve having been reappointed by governors from both parties.
