Tara Foster: TV Producer & Space Reporter
Tara Foster is an eager adventurer, a risk-taker, and an advocate of STEM. Tara has no problem talking to strangers on a bus, hiking through mosquito infested jungles, or driving eleven hours for a rocket launch. She's an Australian-American TV producer and social media reporter in Space!
In Episode 12, we hear how Tara got into the space industry and why she loves it so much! Tara has covered some of the biggest Space industry events over the years including: #Sentinel2Go, #CYGNSS, #OrbitalATK, #ULA, #SpaceX, #ExoMARS, #SpaceUpIE, #SpaceUpISU #Sentinel5P, #SSP17 and #IAC2017. A true connector, with a genuine obsession with Space!
