Current Projects
Eclipse Soundscapes: Citizen Science Project
The Eclipse Soundscapes Mobile Application was an educational app (iOs & Android) that shares NASA SMD resources in an engaging and accessible way for people who are blind and low vision (BLV).
Past Projects
NASA STEM Innovation Lab Hackathon
Two-day hackathon at Goddard Space Flight Center for NASA scientists and educators at which a creative problem solving session birthed new tools that used readily-available commercial tech in a novel way to create adaptable, real-time, 3-D data displays.
National Air and Space Museum Sun Video Wall
Dubbed one of the museum's most popular exhibits, the dynamic video wall shared live, real-time and engaging imagery of the sun to over 8 million visitors a year until its retirement in 2021.
