Born in Chicago on New Year's Day, Kimberly was raised in Ft. Myers, Fl, the oldest of four girls.
As a youngster, early IQ tests showed a highly intelligent mind. With a 145 IQ and the reading ability of an eighth grader, Kimberly started primary school at the age of four. Her strong capacity for growth tracked her into gifted programs and she enjoyed the stimulus of a challenging education.
Along with her academic pursuits, Kimberly showed a strong aptitude for and a keen interest in the arts and athletics. She participated in gymnastics, horseback riding and team sports. With family and neighborhood kids, formed a variety show called "The Shooting Stars;" kids would periodically perform skits, and sing along with their favorite musical artists. In the third grade, she obtained permission for her school to stage her own production of Hansel and Gretel for the elementary school students and parents. She sang in the school choir, and was noted for her pitch-perfect soprano.
Her achievements and interests broadened and deepened in High School; at Ft. Myers High, she was an honor student, displaying a strong interest in English, Spanish, Latin, humanities and drama. Extracurricular activities included cheerleading, softball and track; she was editor of the yearbook, class president, and an officer in several academic clubs.
At Auburn University, Kimberly graduated magna cum laude in public relations; during college, she was active in Alpha Omicron Pi sorority and Beta Theta Pi little sisters, was an athletic hostess, and was involved with the yearbook and drama departments. During this time, she also cultivated an interest in health and fitness by teaching aerobics and studying nutrition.
At age 20, Kimberly matriculated into Northwestern University to earn a Masters of Science in Advertising; although to date she was the youngest student to enter the program,she graduated in the top 20% of her class.
Upon graduation she married and moved to Atlanta. While working as an account rep for a large advertising agency, she began studies at local professional theater groups as a vehicle for creative expression.
After coming to terms with her true passion for acting and the stage, Kimberly committed to a career change and seized the opportunity to travel and perform with her husband, professional wrestler Diamond Dallas Page. She spent eight years with AOL/Time Warner's World Championship Wrestling, a national cable show with 35 million viewers per week.
Here, Kim was able to grow as a performer on many levels; within the genre's soap-opera-like story lines, she was given the freedom to develop her character on her own, and improvise on live TV.
During the show's height, Kimberly played a compelling role as an ambitious, seductive and self-obsessed character. Her work praised for it's originality and comedic value, and although her physical role was limited, she learned simple and convincing stunt work and fight choreography.
In 1998 she developed a concept for the first dance team on professional wrestling: The Nitro Girls. She brought together a group of six sexy and diverse women, crafted dance numbers which fused hip-hop and jazz, and produced a character-driven marketing strategy to appeal to the show's target audience.
The experiment proved highly successful and was a media jewel for the show. As the group's official leader and spokesperson, Kimberly appeared as a guest on such shows as Regis and Kathie Lee, Entertainment Tonight, Extra and Hollywood Squares, and appeared several layouts and covers on national publications such as Maxim, Stuff, and TV Guide.
In 2000, Kimberly retired from wrestling and returned to her theatrical training in Atlanta. She studied Robert Coen's technique at the Alliance theater, on-camera scene study with private coach Shannon Eubanks, and voice training with Jason Byce.
The same year she made her film debut with a cameo appearance in Rat Race, a Warner Brothers picture directed by Jerry Zucker.
Her return to the stage at the Alliance Theater saw her adapting the role of Anthony Marston in Agatha Christie's Ten Little Indians. During the play's run, she was concurrently starring in The Scam Artist, an independent film written and directed by Cliff Hensley. As Sylvia, an angst-ridden rich girl who plots her own kidnapping, she flexed her dramatic muscles in an emotionally-charged, endearingly human performance.
Kimberly relocated to Los Angeles in 2002, and her film appearances include Seabiscuit, The 40 Year Old Virgin and in 2006 premiered a leading role in Dark Horse Entertainment's Monarch of the Moon. On television, she has co-starred on Curb Your Enthusiasm, CSI: Miami and has appeared on several national commercials and infomercials.
Kimberly partnered with Dallas Page again in 2006 to release Yoga For Regular Guys, a seven-DVD series of yoga-inspired workouts which she helped create and produce.
In addition to her yoga practice, one can find her on a mountain bike, skating or running at the beach, hiking the canyons near Malibu, horseback riding, rock climbing and boxing. In the gym or yoga studio every day, she stays in top shape for commercial and print work in the health and fitness industry.
In her spare time, she is an avid reader, enjoys cooking traveling and spending time in the mountains near her home in Salt Lake City, UT.
