Born in the Bay Area of California, Kibwé attended North Gwinnett H.S. on the other side of the country in Suwanee, GA prior to the University of Georgia. Kibwé's first love is the Discus, however shifted to the Hammer while competing for the Bulldogs. Kibwé eventually left Georgia for Ashland University, where he earned a degree in Sports Management with a minor in Coaching. Recently, Kibwé earned USA Outdoor Championships in 2011, 2012, 2014, and 2015, and he represented the USA for the London Olympics, where he made it all the way to the final. In 2011, he set the Pan American Games record for a throw (80.31m/263ft 5.8in), which stands as the best throw by a US athlete since 2000.

Kibwé (which means 'stone' in Swahili) is energetic in competition and enjoys interacting with the crowd. He is one of the few throwers in the world of African (American) descent, and wishes there were more to take part in this great discipline. Off the track, Kibwé can be found spending time with his wife, who is a former Canadian record holder in the Hammer, and their young daughter.
