Kimberly Carter-Fenk

Kimberly is a Stanford Science Fellow in the Department of Chemistry where she studies ultrafast dynamics and proton transfer in deep eutectic solvents with Prof. Michael Fayer. She obtained a B.A. in chemistry from The College of Wooster followed by a Ph.D. in physical chemistry from The Ohio State University. As a graduate student in Prof. Heather Allen’s lab, she probed molecular organization at the air/water interface. Kimberly is passionate about mentoring, and she hopes to integrate the subdisciplines of physical chemistry and green chemistry in her career to advance sustainable climate solutions that prioritize safer chemistry and resource circularity.
