Kim came to cycling via triathlon, a sport she took up as a teenager. When she grew tired of constant running injuries, she made the switch to cycling and has loved every minute of it.

She excels both in time trialing and on long climbs. Kim came to Europe to race for the first time in 2022 as the New Zealand U23 time trial national champion and placed fifth that season in the Mont Ventoux Dénivelé Challenge. Last year she got her first taste of stage racing and finished third on the queen stage at the Tour of Scandinavia.

With climbing and time trialing, Kim appreciates how they are straightforward disciplines. Still new to the sport, racing a TT or a climb means she doesn’t have to worry too much about tactics and can focus on pedaling and pushing herself to her limits, something she loves to do.

In 2024, Kim’s goal is to continue growing as a rider through racing and learning from her teammates.

She has already won the New Zealand time-trial championships and the GC and a stage at the Trofeo Ponente in Rosa. She finished in the top-ten at Liège-Bastogne-Liège and the TT at the Olympic Games.
