Kim Sullivan

Weather specialist

Born and raised on the outskirts of Montreal, Kim had no idea that a career in broadcasting would be in the cards for her.

Her fifth grade teacher saw her potential, though, and had Kim participate in a public speaking contest and the rest was history.

After two Bachelors and a Masters in the fields of education and psychology, travelling to over 30 countries and living on three continents, Kim became a teacher for the deaf. However, she missed public speaking. In 2004, she decided to drop everything to jump into the world of broadcasting.

Lucky for her, a judge at one of her public speaking contests was the G.M. of a radio company in Montreal. He recognized her and hired her on the spot, as a board operator and producer for CJAD, Mix 96 and CHOM.

She was soon promoted to traffic anchor, then co-host of The Irish Show on CJAD and host of The Sulli Show on Virgin Radio.

In 2009, Kim moved to Winnipeg, before relocating to Ottawa in 2010 (where she had her first taste of television as part of a 2012 bucket-list accomplishing show) and back to Montreal in 2013 (to work in radio, as well as host two local television shows).

It was in 2016 that Kim was hired full time in television as the weather specialist and community reporter with Global News Morning in Montreal.

In 2021, Kim become a foster mom to an Inuk boy (Kim is also part Inuk). In 2022, her family grew with the addition of his biological baby brother. Finally, in 2023, cockerpoo Nuka (which means younger sibling in Inuktitut) came along! Her family is now complete!

You can catch Kim as weather specialist on the 11pm newscasts for Toronto, Montreal, New Brunswick and Halifax.
