Nhon Vo

Nhon Vo is the Vice President of Technology, Research and Development at Braidy Industries. Nhon has also worked as a Postdoctoral Scientist at Northwestern University, a Visiting Research Scientist at Los Alamos National Laboratory, a Graduate Research Assistant at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and a Research and Development Intern at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

Nhon's research has spanned a variety of advanced materials, including aluminum alloys, high-temperature steel, and thin films. Nhon has been responsible for gaining understanding of how these materials behave under various conditions, designing and developing new materials, and conducting computer simulations.

Nhon's work has led to several major breakthroughs in the field of advanced materials. In 2011, they were part of a team that developed a new aluminum alloy that is 80% reduced cost while maintaining the same properties of the base material. In 2014, they gained understanding of how a thin film transforms from liquid to solid state, using computer simulation. This work has helped pave the way for further research in this area.

Nhon's extensive experience and expertise in the field of advanced materials make him an invaluable asset to Braidy Industries. Nhon's work has helped the company become a leader in the development of new materials for a variety of applications.

Nhon Vo received a Bachelor of Science in Materials Science and Engineering (Electrical Materials) from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. They then went on to complete their Doctor of Philosophy in Materials Science and Engineering (Nanomaterials and Metallurgy) at the same school.

Some of their coworkers include and Judson Marte - VP of Product Development. Nhon Vo reports to Alan Blankshain, EVP, Engineering & Construction.
