Kate Zhao is a postgraduate researcher and EEE PhD candidate at Imperial College London with nine years of experience bridging engineering rigor and human-centered technology. She draws on a strong academic foundation from Imperial and the University of Waterloo to explore patterns in human relationships and design systems that bring people together. Kate blends technical analysis with social insight, seeking connections across data, devices, and user needs to inform research and prototypes. Based in London, she moves comfortably between deep technical work and collaborative, interdisciplinary projects. Colleagues describe her as a connector who spots subtle signals in data and social dynamics that others miss. She welcomes collaborations that combine engineering, behavioral insight, and practical impact.
