Kimberly Davis founded her small business, Meaningful Memories, as she – along with so many of her friends and family – faced the life phase challenges of downsizing, or “rightsizing,” as some prefer to view it. There is so. Much. Physical stuff to move, and decisions to make, that there is little time left for small precious things like photos. And that’s just the old print photos – the need to organize our digital photos is enormous, too!

And then there's the "stuff." We all know how important it is that the stories behind our “stuff” be preserved. And for those whose stories are held by others, then sitting patiently with people and safeguarding their irreplaceable memories, in writing or by audio, is a way to honor their lives and our relationships. Those stories may go along with photos, or items of sentimental value, or – just life stories, from small, funny family anecdotes to witnesses to history.

Kimberly’s love for all kinds of people led her to believe she could serve well as a Life Story Professional. After a career in environmental management, complemented by work in publishing and public outreach, Kimberly remains fascinated by science, engineering, and nature, as well as history and the arts. Kimberly hopes to connect with people of all backgrounds, and help them tell their stories to be appreciated by generations to come.

Born in Texas, Kimberly began her professional career in New York City;  she and her late husband moved to Virginia and had their daughter, now "grown and flown." Kimberly is active in civic activities, nature and the environment, and satisfying her endless curiosity.

Kimberly brings to her work an ethic of kindness, the seeking of quality, and respect for all.
