Student Affairs Student Spotlight – Kie Workman
Congratulations to Kie Workman for being named this month’s Student Affairs Student Spotlight, an honor bestowed on him for his outstanding personality and accomplishments in academia. Kie is a senior Chemical Engineering major from Spring Hill, TN who has already accepted the position of production engineer for the company Primient when he graduates. He was nominated because of the passion and commitment he has shown in his research of negative ion photoelectron spectroscopy (NIPS) of various molecules. His enthusiasm for engineering can also be seen through his role as treasurer for the engineering honor society, Tau Beta Pi, where the leadership team, according to Kie, “is working to build a capable community of engineers that can grow together and give back to the community through various service events.” Besides being a phenomenal student, Kie enjoys spending time with his family and staying active through Tech’s Climbing Club. When asked what inspired the kindness and leadership that got him the nomination, he focused on his father and his girlfriend as his main inspirations. Kie truly embodies what it means to be a Golden Eagle through his upstanding character, promising leadership skills, and academic excellence which makes him more than deserving of this month’s Student Affairs Student Spotlight.
