NASA Small Business Innovation Research / Space Technology Transfer Program
I joined NASA SBIR/STTR as a Service Design Intern for their program redesign and DEIA efforts. The program provides Small Businesses and Research Institutions with the opportunity to partner up and apply, with hopes of securing early stage funding for their technology, along with potential for commercialization and infusion into NASA missions. My internship was originally set to conclude on May 2022, but found the work so enjoyable that I requested an extension and continued as a contractor through REI Systems.
REI Systems is an IT company (born from a NASA SBIR/STTR grant) that played an integral role in automating and modernizing NASA SBIR’s operations through AI, ML, and Human-Centered Design. They also generously sponsored my CSPO certification!
Skills: Service Design, UX Research, Strategic Foresight
