Born in San Diego, Kimberly grew up in North Carolina, then moved to Florida when she was 14. She's been drawing and painting since childhood, and is an accomplished equestrian. She also spent 17 years applying permanent makeup to plastic surgery patients.

Kimberly moved to Mount Dora five years ago and set up her art studio in an elegant condo - decorated by Kimberly - with a breathtaking view of Lake Dora. She shares the space with two affectionate cats who watch her work hour after hour, often late into the night. The cats have been rescued, a fact that Ghia proudly explains to all her visitors.

When people started taking notice of my lamps, I thought, ''I have something interesting here.'' I inspired myself to go on and create more elaborate decor and design. That is how UltimateLogoLamps.com became a sister company in the JeanniebyKimberly.com family!

She said that working alone in her studio, and being her own boss helps her create more work. However, it's also a pleasure meeting with clients and help them be proactive in the creative process of customizing their Lamps.
