Kim Brooks

Kim Brooks has lived within Athens county, and has been a Bobcat, her whole life.  She comes to the Business Service Center from Alden Library, where she worked for 28 years, plus 3 ½ as an undergraduate student.  She has a BS in Education, but discovered Finance type work is a lot more enjoyable. In 2012, she started assisting the Budget Unit Manager & Analyst in Alden for half of her day (the other half in Circulation), and then moved into the position full time in 2016.  That person retired in 2021, and under the direction of the new Senior Director of Administration, Kim took on a lot of the day to day work her former boss had been doing and has learned a lot in the past two years.  Kim has been married for over three decades and has two adult sons.  She has one sibling, who is 13 years younger, and Kim loves being an aunt to her young nephew.  Kim loves hard rock/metal music and smooth jazz, loves to work Logic Problems for fun (the Insane (highest) Levels), and plays Pokemon Go, often with her youngest son.
