Hey there! I'm Kimmi, The Backpack Girl.
My diverse background in the visual arts, design, advertising, social media, and communications has equipped me with a versatile skill set and a creative mindset, establishing me as a jill of all trades in developing innovative concepts.
I earned my bachelor of arts degree in mass communications from the University of South Florida. I took a gap year as an au pair in Brussels, Belgium and ended up completing my master's degree in communications from Vrije Universities Brussel. Upon graduation I became an English and art teacher in Shanghai, China for four years. I moved back to the US to work in higher education and study abroad.
I have explored six continents with my 35L backpack and also lived in Belgium and China for six years. My other passions include paddle boarding, hiking, reading, and cooking.
