About Kim (from CrunchBase)

Kim is a co-founder at Omsom. Prior to starting Omsom, she was the Head of Platform at Frontline Ventures. She graduated from New York University’s Stern School of Business. She has been working at early-stage startups in New York and Boston since she was 16, at companies like Blue Apron, Onswipe, and HowAboutWe.

Kim has a love for enabling passionate creators, which led her to becoming President of Tech@NYU, NYC’s largest developer and designer organization of 8000+. With the help of her executive board, she coordinated programs such as Startup Week and DemoDays, to further the student technology culture. She was also founding partner of Dorm Room Fund, a $.5M student-run venture fund investing in student startups throughout the East Coast. //
