Listen to The Kim Komando Show on News Radio WJPF Saturday's from 10:00AM-12:00PM!
Computers and the Internet are nothing new to Kim Komando. After all, she was only 9 years old when she first sat at a computer. You could say that this was the start of what industry journal, Information Week, now calls a "one person PC industry."
Born and raised in New Jersey, Kim headed west to Arizona State University in 1985. She earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Systems, which she financed by providing computer hardware and software training classes.
She went on to secure a position as a Marketing Representative with IBM and after some time, made a career move to AT&T as a large business systems Account Manager where she received various awards for her sales achievements.
Unisys Corporation next benefited from Kim's many talents. She made company history by single-handedly closing the largest commercial deal that year with an $11 million sale to a FORTUNE 500 company in 1991.
It was during her Unisys career that Kim began writing her weekly syndicated newspaper column and hosting radio and television programs. Her initial media success gave birth to The Komando Corporation and WestStar TalkRadio Network.
On the weekends, as "America's Digital Goddess�" Kim Komando will take your calls on her top-rated syndicated network talk radio show (The Kim Komando Computer Show) heard on more than 350 radio stations throughout the US, Canada and Australia.
She recently was awarded the National Engineering Leadership award and was elected the most successful A.S.U. graduate (out of nearly 10,000 persons) for her graduating year and is listed in several issues of the prestigious Marquis Who's Who Directory.
And just in case you are curious, "Komando" really is her last name.
