Creative ideas and innovative technology drive exploration of the Moon, Mars, and worlds beyond Earth. NASA’s Engineering Directorates develop transformative space technologies and scientific instruments to enable future missions of exploration and discovery. My role is to lead, coordinate, and empower engineers, scientists, and organizations to bring their ideas to reality in pursuit of space exploration.

A Federal Project Director (FPD, is ultimately responsible to the Program Secretarial Officer for project execution; and is responsible for the management of services provided to DOE or NNSA on a specific project, beginning at the start of design and continuing through the completion, planning, organizing, directing, controlling, and reporting on the status of the project. Responsibilities include developing and maintaining the project management plans; managing project resources, establishing and implementing management systems, including performance measurement systems; and approving and implementing changes to project baselines.

Ames Space Biology Projects primarily support animal and cell biology research, including spaceflight and ground-based studies. Space Biology manages NASA grant solicitations, manages Space Biology grants, and performs the payload development and operations for space biology experiments on the ISS and other free-flyer platforms. Space Biology is responsible for managing approximately 50 grants across the Nation and from 6-to 9 spaceflight experiments annually with about 20 individual simultaneous projects. The Space Biology Manager oversees the various projects, as a program office would, managing the budget, schedule, contracts, grants, and status of all ongoing projects under the office. The Space Biology Manager reports to NASA HQ on all aspects of each research mission.
