Veterans Day 2023 [1]

[]

Date: 2023-11

Title: Safety & Health Manager, Michoud Assembly Facility Branch of service: Air Force Dates of service: 1982-2005 Why did you join the military? I had an uncle who worked on F-4s. I was 13 or 14, and went to visit him one time. I saw the flightline; I was hooked. It was a big motivator for me. Most memorable event/memory: There are so many, but I would have to say there were two defining moments. I was chosen as an Air Traffic Control instructor at Keesler AFB. I didn’t have a lot of public speaking experience, but it did a lot for my confidence. The second was being selected for the Inspector General team. They were the best in their field, and to be chosen to work with them was really an honor. What do you like best about working at NASA? I like working with the diverse culture, people of all walks of life. Whether it’s janitorial staff or a senior leader at a major contractor – it doesn’t really matter. Working in safety, it’s important to care about people.
