San Francisco Here We Come


You guys have listened to my ups and downs but I haven't given you much of my history. Kimberly Latrice Jones was born in 1976 in Melrose Park, Ill. She began her career in entertainment in 1984 when she became Ms. Pleasant Grove in her small town of Kankakee, Ill. Her mother remarried in 1986 and her family relocated to Chicago, Ill. She attended the famous arts High School, The Chicago Academy for the Arts and graduated in 1994. She attended Columbia College for one year where she studied film with a concentration in producing. After bouncing back and forth between Chicago and Atlanta working as a film/tv extra, improv comic and salesperson she decided to move to Los Angeles. While in LA she worked as a wardrobe assistant and eventually as an intern to a Miramax development executive. After several years in LA she settled back in Atlanta where she promptly took a position as a development assistant on the reality series Being Bobby Brown. Upon completion of her work on the series she worked a short period of time as the Company Manager for the Atlanta Ballet. Her next gigs were as the production secretary on the Tyler Perry films Madea's Family Reunion & I Can Do Bad All By Myself. She was the Co-Producer of independent film "Five Days In The A", which received Official Selection at the San Diego Black Film Festival and the San Francisco Black Film Festival. She is currently in development on a short drama with her production company Powerhouse Productions Entertainment, LLC. She is the proud mother of a son, Drake Edward Williams, who resides with her in Atlanta, GA.
