Though originally from southwestern Pennsylvania, Kim had lived in the Carolinas already for nearly 20 years before joining Laudisi in the fall of 2022. As one of Cornell & Diehl's Blending Associates, she's directly involved in creating all of C&D's premium pipe tobaccos — from sorting raw leaf to operating the factory's vintage equipment. Kim's kind demeanor, fun-loving attitude, and hard-working spirit bring a sense of levity to the office, and in her spare time, she's an avid supporter of meditation and spending as much time outside as possible. She also enjoys listening to all types of Rock music from the '70s and '80s and supporting the Pittsburgh Steelers, and she hopes to eventually visit every National Park in the country — a true outdoors-lover's goal.
