Kevin Seitz

Kevin Seitz has a diverse range of work experience in research and engineering roles. Kevin started their career at CUBRC as a Research Engineer, specializing in non-intrusive diagnostics and aero-optics for hypersonic flows. Kevin was involved in hands-on physics research, developing and operating high-speed optical systems for measuring hypersonic boundary layer flows. Prior to this position, they worked as a Remote Research Intern at CUBRC, where they prepared for their full-time role by reading documents and completing paperwork.

Before joining CUBRC, Kevin served as an Undergraduate Research Assistant at SUNY Geneseo. In their role as an assistant in the Muons Over Letchworth project, they built and deployed muon detectors at Letchworth State Park as part of an APS outreach program. Additionally, they worked as an Undergraduate Research Assistant in the Engineering Physics Lab, where they led a team in developing web applications for remotely controlling hardware.

During their time at SUNY Geneseo, Kevin also worked as an Undergraduate Research Assistant in the Geneseo eGarden project. Kevin collaborated with a team to apply their knowledge in physics, computer programming, and circuitry to collect data, build custom measurement devices, and develop renewable energy systems. Kevin also upgraded code on a Raspberry Pi weather station.

Overall, Kevin Seitz's work experience showcases a strong background in research, engineering, and hands-on physics work.

Kevin Seitz received their Advanced Regents Diploma from Williamsville North High School in 2016. Kevin then pursued a Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering Physics/Applied Physics from SUNY Geneseo from 2016 to 2020. Currently, they are studying at the University of Rochester, working towards a Master of Science degree in Optics/Optical Sciences, which they started in 2022.
