Upon receiving her associate’s degree in liberal arts from Butler County Community College, Kimberly D. Geyer was employed with USAir, Inc. for eleven years as a flight attendant. Simultaneously, she has worked with her husband since 1986 running a successful residential /commercial new construction, rental, and development business. A 1980 graduate of Mars High School, she is now a school director for Mars Area School District since running as a write-in candidate in 1999.

In 1994 when her oldest child entered the public school system, she became involved as a parent researching and educating herself on the current issues of Outcome Based Education, Goals 2000, School to Work, the PSSA, Chapter 4 education regulations, the academic standards, and now more recently, NCLB. In January of 1997, she formed Mars Citizens for Academic Excellence, a parent advisory group within her community. Her research and work quickly turned into activism when she single-handedly organized well attended education town and county meetings throughout the Mars Area, Butler, and Allegheny County region with local, state, and national speakers. In the spring of 1997, she organized and underwrote her own state OBE convention (from her kitchen) with nearly 600 attendees and a national panel of speakers. In 1998 she again organized a private dinner reception and public forum for the American Center for Law and Justice with Jay Allan Sekulow pertaining to education law. She has been an underwriter for public education forums held at the Pittsburgh Athletic Association, including the “Math Wars” (2003) with speakers from Stanford University, California State, Los Angeles, and the Brookings Institute’s Brown Center on Education Policy, and “No Child Left Behind” (2004), with MN State Senator Michele Bachmann.” at The University Club. All of her forums have been an effort to get individuals equipped, informed and educated on the issues impacting students and schools with the intention of getting people involved. Kim has written numerous editorials, articles, and newspaper guest columns throughout the state and has been a guest on KQV-Radio, WISR Radio, The Lowman Henry Radio Show, and Pennsylvania Townhall to speak on current education issues impacting schools throughout Pennsylvania. She serves on the advisory panel of the Allegheny Public Policy Institute and the Commonwealth Education Organization.

Her activism eventually led her to Harrisburg where she has met and worked with various state legislators on both sides of the aisle from the House and Senate. She has worked on finding common ground with the key policy people of both the House and Senate Policy Research and Development Departments. Furthermore, she has spoken several times at rallies held at the Capitol’s Rotunda, as well as, testified numerous times before the Senate and House Education Committees. For the past five years, she has researched, written, and lobbied her own legislative proposals on behalf of Mars Area School District for the Pennsylvania School Board Association’s legislative platform and has been successful in retaining to "over 50 different" retained items onto the state membership’s platform of issues. Kim has established her own statewide education e-mail network which acts as a grassroots resource for parents, school officials, and legislators in providing information and bulletins on the most current issues impacting local school districts statewide. Furthermore, Kim has provided analysis when requested by legislators and policymakers. Upon request, she has provided pointed questions and bullets for state hearings, compiled letters for legislators on various issues for constituents, and shares what she has learned with policymakers. Her love of meeting new people and constant attempt to find common ground with whomever she meets, has helped in the effort of bridging gaps of communication between state and local levels, as well as, proven her to be a respected legislative liaison. Kim recognizes that the House and Senate are two unique assemblies of government in philosophy and process, but, has not been deterred in her efforts to work with both sides in her attempt to provide helpful, accurate material in their deliberations, as well as, applications in policymaking. In 2004, she was nominated as one of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s “Top 48” most influential people in education in Pennsylvania and she received a lifetime achievement award by the Pennsylvania School Boards Association. 2005 was a busy year working on the various property tax relief legislative proposals and providing analysis for both the House and Senate as well as working on various state policy initiatives pertaining to manufacturing, economics, medicaid, and taxes beyond education issues.

In 2006, Kim was elected to the Midwestern Intermediate Unit 4 Board of Directors in Grove City, Pennsylvania, which works to provide innovative education programs and services to the 27 school districts throughout Butler, Mercer, and Lawrence Counties. In 2007, she was re-elected to a new four year term at the Intermediate Unit.

Furthermore, Kim accepted an appointment to the St. Barnabas Community Advisory Committee in 2006 which oversees numerous, diverse projects and fundraising events for the benefit of patients and residents of the St. Barnabas Health System in Gibsonia, Pennsylvania and serves on their CEO Leadership Committee which hosts a forum annually.

In March 2007, she helped her school board and high school administration facilitate the "PSSA/Education Enrichment Days" which is a three day event concurring with the same time frame as the PSSA administration for 11th graders. Kim facilitated enrichment speakers for the 9th, 10th, & 12th grade students to provide learning enrichment opportunities, internships, and networking career opportunities for all students at Mars High School in all core curriculum academic areas.

O'Brien, Foreign Language specialists,  Curator from Carnegie Museum, National Trumpeter, Stephan Hawk, KDKA Radio's Dr. Knowledge, and many more professionals providing Mars students various learning opportunities. In May 2007, she facilitated Dr. Cyril H. Wecht to return to Mars High School to present a school wide assembly for students and staff on the John F, Kennedy assassination. Later in May of 2007, she was nominated  as one of 35 people statewide  to participate in Pennsylvania's first inaugural costing out education study and contributed toward the study which utilizes evidence based research as a method of costing out adequate education funding in Pennsylvania and identifying the resources schools need to meet state requirements and student expectations.
