Kim Stirling

I grew up in Baton Rouge, Louisiana where the cicadas sing as loud as your taste buds do after eating some spicy Cajun food. I used to draw pictures of a two-story house and said I was going to live near mountains. Now here I am in beautiful Washington State in a two-story house. Even at a young age, I was setting goals for myself.

My grandmother didn't graduate high school, yet she ran a very successful bookkeeping and tax service for many years. My two aunts still operate it today. Apparently, understanding numbers and complex rules and regulations runs in my family.

After working in social services for many years, the opportunity to help others with their primary concern – money – presented itself and I knew that not only would I be well-suited for the role, I would be able to put those that I would be working with at ease.

One thing my grandmother taught me was to treat everyone like family. She didn't have 'clients'… She had an extended family. Like her, I look forward to being there for you and your family – attending weddings, watching the kids grow up, planning for family vacations and being there in the hard times with a caring nod that everything will be ok.

Travel is my love language. I look forward to many more adventures and helping others fulfill their bucket list. I also enjoy helping others understand all their financial options. I've got a big heart and quite a bit of spice, and I enjoy working with people who can appreciate someone going the extra mile for them. Seeing you achieve your goals and dreams is my passion.

My hobbies include hiking, paddle boarding, photography, adventure sports, flying, boating and going on field trips with my dog. I volunteer as a mentor for young girls, pitch in at the Kitsap Humane Society as well as the Navy/Marine Relief Corps Society when time allows and am a member of the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary. I live on the Kitsap Peninsula with my dog, Tux.
