I am known as Chemical Kim a Chemistry Instructor at Kalamazoo Valley Community College in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I offer a science outreach to motivate kids and adults to investigate their world and experiment. Part of my outreach involves being the resident scientist on ABC affiliate WZZM 13 Take Five & Company in Grand Rapids, Michigan, featured biweekly on Fridays. I presents a blend of smart and entertaining science concepts with included hands-on activities for kids of all ages. Every segment features me teaching a show host how to do science activities. The science segment provides students with fun activities and the confidence to investigate science at home or in school. I also present hands-on science at area schools and organizations through classroom and school assemblies.
