Kimberley Givens

Philanthropy Administrator

Kim holds more than 15 years of senior-level experience as an executive assistant in professional office positions. She established a strong performance record in high-volume, high-pressure environments — in established organizations, as well as start-ups. Kim’s experience also includes raising her now-adult children, and launching them successfully; as well as running her own businesses. Prior to joining the Institute, Kim served as Executive Assistant to the Founder and CEO of One Mind, where she excelled managing a continuous (and sometimes conflicting) stream of information, deadlines, requests, calls, and appointments — as well as coordinating events, conferences, and travel. She has a proven record of keeping offices running smoothly by improving efficiency — successfully balancing competing priorities and delivering quality work. Kim’s adept at working with all levels of employees, executives, and board members; excelling as a liaison between the executives she supports and those they’re responsible for directing and managing.

Kim has degrees in paralegal studies and political science. She was born and raised in Northern California, most-recently residing in Sonoma County. But when she recently became a grandmother, she relocated to Wisconsin to be closer to her son’s young family…and “Noni” to her adorable granddaughter.
