Armed with her trusty Totoro, a bowl of noodles and an ever changing accent, Kim’s continuing mission is to seek out new videogames and boldly go where no Pokémon has gone before.

Description

Early Life

Kim was born in England to an English father and a Malaysian mother. Since her childhood days, she has lived in Penang, Stavanger, Aberdeen, Falkirk, Hull, Venezuela, Colombia, Shanghai, Milton Keynes, Liverpool and Bath. She later went to the same university as Rosie Jones, Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts, and obtained a degree in sound technology.

Kim has worked for various video game publications as a game journalist. She has also worked for PlayStation Access both in front of and behind the camera.

Yogscast

Kim first joined the Yogscast as a freelancer editor in 2012 before transitioning into a full-time Content Producer in May 2013. Experienced in games journalism, Kim produces game reviews known as KIMPRESSIONS! and also acts as the Yogscast's reporter in the field with Hannah for events such as E3, EGX and Gamescom. She and Hannah also interview game developers during these events. Kim also co-hosted YogNews with Strippin and later Turps.

Kim's first foray into modded Minecraft was in her series The Apprentice, where Sjin, and later Sips and Duncan, teach her the basics of modded Minecraft. Prior to that, Kim roleplayed as her Minecraft character, Nanosounds, in Sjin's modded Minecraft series Feed The World. Both Duncan and Kim later co-hosted Galacticraft, the Flux Buddies series and To Infinity. She also hosted Nano's Village. Outside of the Yogscast, Kim has participated in various Minecraft collaborations such as Minecraft Summer Camp, One Life and UHShe Season 5.
