Home About Me My Work Resume' Links
     My name is Kate Kimball, and I am from Salt Lake City, Utah. I graduated from Jordan High School in 1999, and was awarded the 1998 Henry Eyring Chemistry Award from the University of Utah. I began attending the University of Utah in 1998, and will finish with my bachelor's of science degree in Gender Studies in December 2003. I have a strong background in chemistry and biology, however my interests changed before I completed those degrees.  
     Many of my interests revolve around women's issues, such as: equality in the work force, history, political representation, and recovery from rape, drug abuse, etc. I have been involved with the Rape Recovery Center as a volunteer since February 2003. I also regularly volunteer as a camp counselor for the Foundation for Children and Youth with Diabetes.  
     Writing is one of my strongest skills. Poetry, analytical essays, historical registers, and short stories are the styles that I have done. The historical registers have largely been influenced by my current job as an archivist in the Manuscripts Division, Special Collections, J. Willard Marriott Library, where I have been working since August of 1999. I have specialized in archiving the fields of science, communications, religion, politics and government, and recreation and leisure.  
     Prior to the Olympics in Salt Lake City 2002, I worked closely with the Ski Archives and conducted several tours and displays of the Utah Ski Archive collection, which is composed of over 200 collections of correspondence, oral histories, brochures, pamphlets, posters, scrapbooks, news clippings, and memorabilia. I am looking for a career where I can utilize my strong leadership qualities, my micro and macro management abilities, and passion for writing.
