We had the good fortune of connecting with Kim Wise and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kim, where are your from? We’d love to hear about how your background has played a role in who you are today?
I am from Illinois, having spent my formative years near Chicago. I earned my B.S. in Education from the University and dedicated eight years to teaching before relocating to Georgia to assume the role of a reading specialist. Following this, I transitioned to North Carolina where I spent a decade teaching reading as both an inclusion specialist and a resource educator for special education students.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
