Description

Today's episode is special because I had the opportunity to collaborate with Wonder Workshop, the robotics company, and EdWeb to interview Bekah Sosland Siegfriedt, a current flight director at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. She was one of the featured team members in Amazon Prime's GOOD NIGHT OPPY and got to work with space rovers Spirit and Opportunity.

This episode was a live webinar; the video replay is available and linked in the show notes. At the end of the conversation with Bekah, the moderator for this webinar, Bryan Miller, the Senior Director of Global Strategic Outreach at Wonder Workshop and was a guest on the show last year, asks Bekah some great questions to close out the webinar.

I learned so much in this interview. I am so grateful for this opportunity and so excited to be able to share this with you today. I know you're definitely going to enjoy it.
