你的职业:
Co-owner, along with her husband, Brad, of 吃午饭 Aire Inc. The Newmans take great pride in being a family-owned and operated business that was founded in 1968 by Kim’s parents, Dwight and Jeanne Gnepper, with only three employees. When her parents retired in 1989, Kim and Brad bought 吃午饭 Aire and have grown it tremendously in almost three decades. 今天, 吃午饭 Aire offers aircraft charter, flight instruction and rental, aircraft sales and maintenance, parts and oil sales and propeller/governor sales and service and de-ice boot sales/installation.
Kim is undeniably proud of her family that includes son Andrew, 女儿丹妮尔, and five grandchildren. 最终, Andrew will take over 吃午饭 Aire, becoming the third generation to oversee the company’s operations. 既然丹妮尔, 16年毕业于伯格大学, and her family have settled back into the 吃午饭 area, 金奶奶非常, very happy to have the whole clan close by! That includes her two dogs, a Labradoodle and a Collie, who are never very far.
伯格的遗产:
Kim recalls when her active engagement with Heidelberg began 17 years ago. “It was a short time after the Williard Hall fire, and Lee Martin recruited me.” She has volunteered many, many hours as a member of the 澳门银河网站理事会, serving as president the past four years. Along with council presidency comes a seat on the Board of Trustees. Kim previously served as president of the Fellows Organization for two years, from 2003-05.
In her final year as 澳门银河网站理事会 president, Kim has spearheaded the revitalization of the 澳门银河网站理事会, transforming it into an efficient, effective and purpose-driven organization that is committed to helping Heidelberg’s progress. Giving credit to past presidents Donna Overholt, Bob Youngblood and Jaimie Orr for laying the foundation of the council, she’s confident it will be proactive in its mission and impact going forward.
今年6月, she’ll turn over council leadership to Frann Zverina, ’74, with satisfaction in the knowledge that her time as one of the most visible Heidelberg ambassadors has been very rewarding. “It’s just time for some new blood. But you’ll still see me around.”
Kim is invested, heart and soul, in Heidelberg. Her leadership is transformational. She demonstrates her commitment and passion and persuades others to join her. You can’t say no to Kim! 你想跟着她. She is the ultimate partner. The one who doesn’t back down, keeps others motivated and makes sure that everyone crosses the finish line together. 她是我的MVP.
