In today’s episode, Stephen gets to know Ayla Grandpre! Ayla grew up in Laurel, Montana and chased down her moonshot dreams of working in the fields of programming and space! Through college, she launched herself, all systems go, into programs with NASA and JPL and a programming and systems engineering career with Maxar Industries. Ayla is among the ranks of several high powered, brilliant women in the air and space industries as a Brooke Owens Fellow. We hope you enjoy getting to know Ayla as much as we did!
