Kimberly founded Bucket List Foundation in 2011 with the vision to recognize our senior population. Her passion for this generation was fostered at a young age when her grandparents, William and Vesper Amundson owned and operated skilled and assisted living communities in the midwest. A greater part of her childhood spent with the elderly had the most profound effect on the work she does today.

Kimberly has been a nurse for nearly three decades; a career beginning as a Certified Nurse Assistant and advancing to a Bachelors Degree in Nursing with focus in Gerontology and Hospice care. Kimberly has received local and National recognition for her philanthropic work and servitude in our senior community with appearances on the "Katie" Couric show, finalist and recipient of the L'Oreal Paris Women of Worth award receiving acknowledgement from celebrities, including Diane Keaton, Andie MacDowell and Lea Michele.
