Newspace Conference, Summer 2019
Elected as the Vice-Chair of the Board of Directors for the 2019-2020 term.
SEDS-USA, under my leadership, has invested in diversifying the students and young professionals within the space industry not just through ethnicity; but gender and major. I’ve helped facilitate the creation of the national podcast SEDScast to provide a platform for established industry professionals to directly communicate with the upcoming space generation. I lead efforts on the development of the Artemis Student Ambassadors Program which developed from a SPACE ACT agreement with NASA Office of STEM Engagement to ensure university students as the voice for the Artemis Generation.
