Kimberly K. Parker Biography
Kimberly Kay Parker has kept a journal since 1986! Naturally expressing herself best through writing, she never considered herself to be an author. However, that all changed when her then two year old son, Khalil, began conversing. His innocent words literally began to transform her life! It was then that Kimberly knew she had to go beyond mere journaling and begin sharing her writings with others.
Before Kimberly became an author, she worked as a manager for a very reputable Washington, DC based non-profit organization. With the birth of her first child, she resigned to become a Stay-at-Home Mother and for over nine years she basked in the joy of raising four beautiful children. In 2007, Kimberly returned to the workforce in the field of education.
Kimberly is dedicated to a life of service, understands the importance of charity, and models her life accordingly. She has established the DeBraux Parker Foundation, a non-profit organization on a mission to stimulate, build, and sustain a diverse community of young writers who find commonalities in a shared passion for ideas.
Kimberly is married to Reverend Kenneth Anthony Parker who, she attests, "...is the epitome of beauty and compliments my life completely." Together, they lovingly nurture and train their four children: Bricen Anthony, Khalil DeBraux, Kalonji Ameer, and Kalani Kay, who are all gifts from God!
