Describe what you did during your internship:

During my internship I migrated all content from the legacy site to GLEW, ensuring seamless integration of interactives and simulations. Additionally, I researched and developed new content focused on emerging aeronautics and aerospace technologies. One of my key projects involved designing and developing a fully autonomous Kwadropus duster arm prototype for cleaning the ISS in microgravity. I also managed inventory and conducted quality testing on legacy equipment to ensure optimal performance.

Did you achieve your goals?

I was able to achieve my overall goals of this internship. Not only did I migrate all the contents, but in addition, I was able to develop my own content and publish them on the GLEW pages. I was also able to contribute to additional projects where I learned so many new things.

Describe positive lessons learned:

It’s okay to say “I don’t know.” People are generally willing to teach and support me without judgment. In networking and presentations, this mindset allows for open learning and growth, fostering a more collaborative and understanding environment.

What was the impact of this internship?

My experience at NASA Glenn taught me the power of collaboration. Working alongside experts from diverse fields showed me that the best solutions are often born from collective ingenuity.
