Kim Palma, Designer

Kim PalmaAloha! I was born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii. After spending several years working as a lighting designer and production manager in New York, I have recently moved to Southern California to be closer to my island home! I have literally traveled around the world with dance and theater companies, mounting shows in everything from opera houses to high school gymnasiums. I am still touring and work in and out of California as a freelance artist.
