Bio

I believe that space exploration is the key to solving the #SDG's. My mission is to connect the #SpaceCurious to the #SpaceSerious and bridge the awareness gap about how space benefits life on Earth. This is why I founded SPACE FOR A BETTER WORLD, a 501c3 non-profit. I’m the former manager of Buzz Aldrin and now work with Apollo 16's Charlie Duke and NASA Astronauts Nicole Stott and Susan Kilrain and SpaceX astronaut Dr. Sian Proctor of the #Inspiration4 fully civilian mission to space. In October of 2021 I launched the #AIMHIGHER project to inspire using the wonder of space exploration and to promote inclusivity and diversity in space. Coming up: June 8/9 - ZERO GRAVITY flight and VIP Tour in Houston, TX with astronauts Nicole Stott and Doug Hurley June 11, 13 & 14 - AIM HIGHER events in Romania Sept 21-24 - ZERO GRAVITY in Bordeaux, France Past projects: - May, 2022 - AIM HIGHER Gala in London - more info at aimhighergala.com - October, 2021 - Aim Higher for World Space Week & Int’l Day of the Girl - More info at aimhigher.space - November, 2020 HER Story 100 - More info at herstory100.com - August, 2020 - Our Story 100 to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the 19th Amendment and women's right to vote in America.

As the Aldrin Family Foundation’s COO and CMO, I oversaw the day-to-day operations of all business development, educational programs, partnerships, licensing and marketing and used my experience to create and execute global marketing campaigns and product lines like the Giant Mars Map™ and the Giant Moon Map™, exciting, standards-based interactive educational tools for schools and education centers. One of my proudest accomplishments is co-producing the Emmy-nominated and Webby-winning “Buzz Aldrin’s Cycling Pathways to Mars” VR Experience with 8i.
