BEYOND THE ASTROPHYSICS RESEARCH, I AM INVOLVED IN THE BROADER SPACE COMMUNITY. I VIEW SPACE AS SHARED HUMAN HERITAGE AND HAVE THEREFORE BEEN ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN EFFORTS TO PRESERVE HUMAN HERITAGE IN SPACE.

I AM A HERITAGE COUNCIL MEMBER OF FOR ALL MOONKIND, INC., WHERE I RESEARCHED THE INTERNATIONAL DIVERSE ADVANCEMENTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS IN ASTRONOMY AND PHYSICS THAT LED TO THE FIRST FOOTPRINT ON THE MOON. I HAVE BEEN A CRITICAL ASSET FOR THIS NON-PROFIT IN THEIR WRITING OF INTERNATIONAL SPACE LAW TO SAFEGUARD HUMAN HERITAGE IN SPACE.

AS A LOSIER & GONZÁLEZ, PLLC FELLOW, I CONDUCTED A RESEARCH REPORT TO THE UNGA ON THE ABILITY OF SPACE TECHNOLOGY TO ADVANCE THE 17 UN SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS. I WAS INVITED TO SPEAK AT THE UNITED NATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY SCIENCE SUMMIT SESSION: UTILIZING SPACE TECHNOLOGY TO ADVANCE UN SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS, ABOUT THE WAY THAT SPACE ACCESS HAS SHAPED MY PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL TRAJECTORY.

MY COMMITMENT TO PRESERVING HERITAGE IN SPACE AND CREATING SCIENTIFIC OPPORTUNITY HAS LED TO MY SERVICE TO NASA’S PLANETARY DEFENSE, MY EXECUTIVE BOARD POSITION AS OUTREACH COORDINATOR FOR ACES WORLDWIDE, MY RECENT POSITION AS AN INTERNATIONAL DARK SKY ADVOCATE, MY MEMBERSHIP OF THE COMMITTEE FOR THE CULTURAL UTILISATION OF SPACE (ITACCUS), AND MY RESEARCHER ROLE FOR THE SPACE GENERATION ADVISORY COUNCIL SPACE LAW AND POLICY GROUP.
