I am Kim. I create and destroy. I am the bald chick, the human mannequin. A natural redhead, and a redhead at heart, I have been shaving my head for 8 years, and I have many wigs..a different look for each day. I lost my hair when I was a teenager to alopecia areata, but sometimes I feel it was the best thing that ever happened to me, and through coping with that I developed a unique sense of style, and self-confidence. I am not afraid to be myself in any situation. I never sleep, I travel the Western world, I'm interested in a million things. I am artist and individual.
I am the frontwoman and vocalist for the Charlottesville-based metal band Thismeansyou, who I have been with for about 7 years..
As for my main interests, I love metal- mainly elite black metal, death and thrash. I like to travel all over to go to metal shows, and drink beer and Jagermeister. My favorite bands are Iron Maiden and Emperor. I also enjoy some types of more aggressive industrial music, and frequent goth/industrial clubs. I enjoy the nocturnal aesthetic- I'm an Atheist, not a Satanist, not a Pagan, but I do respect intelligent spirituality in many forms. Outside of music, I also enjoy designing and fabricating my own clothes, mainly leather, chainmail, and corsets. Proudly, I admit my geekdom in saying that I also am a big Star Wars fan. I have a large collection of black metal vinyls and demo tapes. I drink way too much Diet Coke when I'm not drinking beer. I built my own Bavarian biergarten in my house, complete with kegerator, so I never have to leave home to raise a big icee stein of Paulaner and say, "Prost!".
Right now I am employed by the University of Virginia's Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities, a stellar academic research organization that facilitates projects dealing with computing and cultural heritage. I am currently working in the field of Roman Archaeology on a large scale real time digital model of ancient Rome. My job is awesome because I get to travel all around the world to present and collaborate with others on this really fascinating project! I have degrees in Studio Art and Computer Science, and was awarded a graduate fellowship in Digital Art. Please check out my art on my personal website here:
I like to think of myself as a warrior in some sense or another. I love Viking culture, and Norse mythology. I am German, Icelandic, and Irish, and I speak fluent German and am also learning Norwegian. I would like to live in Europe someday, ideally in some grim old castle. I am trained in the way of the sword, and I was on the Kendo team at UVA, and went to Nationals. For the past three years, I have been doing Pro-Wrestling with Richmond Lucha Libre and Ground Xero Training School, and that is amazingly fun and painful. SUPPORT LOCAL MAYHEM!
"Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it." - Jack Kerouac
Who I'd like to meet: Metal brethren, other bald women, artists, musicians, pro-wrestlers, and intelligent individuals! Add me if you wish, however, I DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME TO CHAT, SO IF I DON'T KNOW YOU PERSONALLY, I USUALLY WILL NOT RESPOND!
