Kimera Lattimore is best known for being a singer, songwriter, producer, and vocal coach. She is also an Elder and Founder of Alpha Rose Omega Inc and in the next coming season she will also be a Doctor of Theology from Buffalo, NY. Being the daughter of parents who are both musically inclined, Kimera discovered a love for music at a very young age. At the age of 7, Kimera began singing at churches in WNY being identified as the “Little girl with the Big voice” winning numerous vocal competitions in her adolescence.
Throughout her teenage years two things were evidently candid about Kimera; her love for music and her love for God. At the tender age of 17, Kimera was chosen amongst her peers at Performing Arts High School to be on a national tour. While on tour, Kimera was signed to a national recording label and toured for 7 years singing alongside artists, such as, James Fortune, Zacardi Cortez, Vanessa Bell Armstrong, Byron Cage, Yolanda Adams, Marvin Sapp, Fred Hammond, William Murphy, Mary Mary, Kirk Franklin, Earnest Pugh, and PJ Morton, just to name a few. Having the privilege to sing about God intrigued Kimera into a hunger that music alone no longer fulfilled. In 2014 Kimera founded a Christian Sorority entitled “Alpha Rose Omega Sorority Inc. ARO is now a national sorority that challenges spiritual discipline and empowers women of all backgrounds while pouring into charities and caring for the homeless. The sisters of ARO are devoted to being “Servants of Christ, Beacons of Light, and Women of Excellence”.
Along with the pursuit of ministry, Kimera frequently found herself in an atmosphere of music where it was becoming a full time job. She worked vigorously at writing, producing, and arranging everything from jingles to full albums for various artist. It was through that passionate journey that she stumbled upon an intense love for teaching. In 2014, Kimera created “a’Kappela Institute”, which is an academy designed to teach everything from the basics to the most intricate details of singing. Since then she’s taught over 200 students leading the most driven to Arts Academy’s and musical Television shows like “The Voice” and “America’s Got Talent”.
As if singing, heading a Sorority and teaching wasn’t enough, Kimera’s desire for ministry seemed to be one to always leave her hungry. Through committed study in January of 2014, Kimera was ordained as an Elder of the Gospel. While going through her ordination she continued her study while being a student in Theology school. In 2017, Kimera graduated from the Midwest College of Theology earning her Bachelors of Science.
In this present day, Kimera is spent serving as the Assistant Creative Director at The Renovation Church, which is her home church, and chasing the “Lions” of her life all while teaching, writing, singing, and preaching in between. She’s thorough on her belief of integrity as she defines it as, “Who do you chose to be when no one else can see?”. Kimera is a bold expressive advocate for the underdog and devotes time to pushing them up. She’s a strong believer that our lives are stories just like the heroes we admire in the Bible and is determined to love hers for the Cause Of Christ.
“My hope above all is to show the world that the beauty of individuality is ‘difference’ and every difference is just as important as the other. To shed light on the invisible gifts that every individual have and to ensure that they are revealed. To show the most hurting pained heart that God is NOT obscure, but tangible.”
