Outer Spaces
Working at NASA and SETI comes with the privilege of a view into outer space, the focus back to planet Earth, and the responsibility for new science, technology and dedicated education that serve humanity.

NASA Projects and Awards
From ISS science, to technology and an open-science platform, to looking for exoplanets at the Kitt Peak Observatory and signatures for extraterrestrial life.
STEM Education
My brainchild, the 4-year STEP (Science, Technology and Exploration Program) summer school at NASA Ames, was a program for high school and middle school students and teachers. It was a "labor of love". Thank you to my colleagues for the fantastic team we put together!
​
My fabulous students put together an astrobiology activity to empower NexGeneGirls, and we also contributed to students learning about ISS through the Orion's Quest program.
