About Me
Hi! I am Kimberly Wang, a chemical engineering honors student studying at the University of Texas at Austin.
I love making the impossible possible. I was previously an undergraduate teaching assistant for the MIS class at UT's
McCombs School of Business and an undergraduate researcher in Dr. Korgel's lab, focusing on nanocrystals and nanorods,
as well as in Dr. Brennecke's lab for ionic liquid robots. I recently completed my honors thesis on "Graphene-Based
Sensors for Electrolysis-Mediated Ion Detection" in Dr. Li's lab and am continuing my work toward publishing a paper.
I have previously worked twice at Tesla as a manufacturing engineering and material flow automation engineer and as a
systems engineering intern at Woven by Toyota in Japan. I was also a recipient of the Mercedes AMG High-Performance
Powertrains Engineering Programme Workshop, which took me to Brixworth, Northamptonshire, and the Undergraduate Research
Fellowship Award for my honors thesis work. One of my all-time favorite experiences was traveling outside the US for the
first time to participate in a study abroad program in Copenhagen, Denmark. I also served as President of Texas Guadaloop,
leading a team to design and build hyperloop pods for the SpaceX competition and other global competitions (EHW, Global Hyperloop,
and UCI). I am consistently innovating in my teaching and learning from an ever-changing technological environment. Outside of school,
I created a website to document my journey to change the world!
