Item Description

(Kimberly Gill is donating a two hour meeting with winning bidder.)

Kimberly can be seen on Good Morning Cleveland weekdays from 5am-7am. Being one of the hosts for such an early morning program requires her to wake-up at 2:30am for work. She usually sets four alarm clocks so she won't oversleep. With that said, it also means that in the evening she's usually in bed before the sun sets. When she's not sleeping or working she enjoys reading, roller-skating, watching Gamecock football, playing most any sport and eating at new restaurants. She does not cook but has recently learned how to use a crock-pot. She also considers herself a TV news junkie. She loves music and has had Classical vocal training. Currently she studies voice at Baldwin-Wallace College in Berea.

Kimberly is originally from South Carolina. She graduated from the University of South Carolina with a degree in Broadcast Journalism. Go Gamecocks!! Kim paid her way through college by working two jobs. She drove 18 wheelers for FedEx and fueled private and commercial airplanes for an aviation company. She did this all to pursue her dream of becoming a television news anchor. Her next dream is to learn to fly an airplane.

Kimberly came to Cleveland in August of 2007 from the Florence/ Myrtle Beach, South Carolina TV news market. She is enjoying Cleveland though she admits her first winter here was tough. She had to learn quickly how to drive in the snow, that you can't wear flip-flops in February and that grits and sweet tea aren't served in every restaurant.

She's jumped right into the Cleveland community and is happy to call the Westside home.  She frequently volunteers her time to various organizations. She is a member of the Junior League of Cleveland. She serves on the Advisory Board for the Cleveland Area Chapter of The Alzheimer's Association, she's on the board for the West Side Community House of Cleveland and she serves on the Truck Driving Academy Advisory Board for the Cuyahoga Community College Workforce & Economic Development Commission.
