Susan Kim
Advisory Council
Susan Kim grew up on the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples prior to moving to Lekwungen Traditional Territory in 2013.
She currently serves as City Councillor for the City of Victoria after having had opportunities to foster her leadership skills in government, healthcare, and non-profit settings. She is a proponent of equity-based decision making and grounds her work in supporting her communities. In her free time, she enjoys long distance running, kickboxing, playing the viola and spending time with her family and friends – especially her rescue dog Vafa!
Her academic background is in both biology and political science, and she brings experience in governance from her time serving on the Board of the Sierra Club of BC, Greater Victoria Harbour Authority, Greater Victoria Coalition to End Homelessness, and Greater Victoria Public Library.
