  • Kim Green Edmonton Suzuki Piano School Admin
  • Kim Green

    Administrator

    Kim Green is a transplant to Edmonton from Canada's west coast, growing up on the beach and in the forests of northern Vancouver Island. She has worked for more than 20 years in non-profit management, primarily in arts administration. Kim was introduced to Edmonton Suzuki Piano School as a young mom when she enrolled her own children in the program. Through the years Kim observed her boys as they not only grew as musicians, but also developed skills in problem-solving, goal-setting, and tenacity. When she was approached to manage the society, she jumped on board without hesitation. With her first-hand experience of the positive impacts the program could have, she wanted to help introduce that to other families to Edmonton Suzuki Piano School. When Kim is not working, she keeps busy gardening, geocaching, and walking her energetic Airedale Terrier.
