Short Bio
Kevin Braza is a chemist, educator, and AI safety scientist. He holds a B.S. in Chemistry from UC Santa Barbara and is an incoming Chemical Engineering PhD student at UC Davis, where his research will focus on computational modeling of dental materials.
He works at Reinforce Labs doing CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear) AI safety and misuse prevention research, and has previously evaluated scientific reasoning in frontier models at xAI and OpenAI. He holds an MBA from Quantic and a secondary mathematics teaching credential from LMU.
As a private academic mentor, Kevin works with a small number of families on long-term academic stewardship — from competition chemistry and standardized testing to research mentorship and university admissions strategy. He was previously faculty at Villanova Preparatory School and is the #1-rated tutor on Schoolhouse.world with 250+ sessions.

Available to Speak On
AI Safety & CBRN Risk
How frontier models are evaluated for chemical and biological misuse potential. What the red lines are and why they matter.
Chemistry Education
Teaching chemistry at the competition and research level — USNCO, IChO, undergraduate preparation. What separates students who excel from those who plateau.
The Future of Private Academic Mentorship
Why the hour-by-hour tutoring model is broken and what long-term academic stewardship actually looks like.
Scientists in AI
What domain expertise adds to AI safety evaluation, and why training more chemists, physicists, and biologists to work in AI matters.
