NASA-PEER Constellation Mentorship Program

I currently co-lead the NASA-PEER mentorship program at Goddard Space Flight Center. NASA-PEER helps post-baccalaureate researchers prepare for the next steps in their careers by providing support, community, and skill-building via targeted programming and a strong constellation mentoring network.

Astronomy on Tap Seattle

I am co-founder of Astronomy on Tap (AoT) in Seattle, a free monthly outreach event featuring astronomy-themed talks and trivia at a local brewery. AoT Seattle has been holding events since March 2015, and now regularly draws crowds of over 200 astro-enthusiasts each month. During my tenure organizing and running AoT Seattle, events were live-streamed, as well as recorded on our YouTube channel.

University of Washington Planetarium

From 2015-2017 I served as the coordinator for the University of Washington Planetarium, a fully digital planetarium. As coordinator, I ran trainings for volunteers on how to create and present planetarium shows using WorldWide Telescope, and organized the daily schedule of shows for audiences of all ages and backgrounds.
