Kim was a free spirited soul who took on many passions.  One of which included cooking.  She had an incredible niche for vegan cuisine.  So much so, she created The Vegan Spot to share her love for vegan cuisine with her beloved customers.  One of her favorite things were her crystals.  More specifically, tourmaline.  She also loved to watch Gervonta "Tank" Davis, her favorite boxer.
