00:00:00,506 --> 00:00:02,546
>> [Background Music]

2
00:00:03,046 --> 00:00:05,706
>> I am a photographer at NASA.

3
00:00:06,016 --> 00:00:09,176
We support the research
that the scientists do.

4
00:00:09,176 --> 00:00:12,296
So we go into the labs and
document the work they're doing.

5
00:00:12,826 --> 00:00:14,956
We cover events,
we do portraits,

6
00:00:15,156 --> 00:00:16,886
and photograph hardware
in our studio.

7
00:00:17,426 --> 00:00:20,646
Also, I take pride in
the social media platform

8
00:00:20,646 --> 00:00:24,296
that we've created and I would
hope that the young people

9
00:00:24,296 --> 00:00:26,746
that follow us on there see
the photographs and videos

10
00:00:26,746 --> 00:00:29,586
that we create and that
inspires them to go

11
00:00:29,586 --> 00:00:31,166
on to pursue jobs in STEM.

12
00:00:32,346 --> 00:00:34,816
In addition to being a
photographer for NASA,

13
00:00:34,816 --> 00:00:35,976
I teach photography

14
00:00:35,976 --> 00:00:37,986
at a nonprofit called
the Cleveland Print Room,

15
00:00:38,416 --> 00:00:39,926
where I teach photography

16
00:00:40,066 --> 00:00:41,526
to middle school and
high school kids.

17
00:00:41,986 --> 00:00:44,586
So it's really great
for them to see my work

18
00:00:44,586 --> 00:00:47,266
as a NASA photographer
so that inspires them

19
00:00:47,266 --> 00:00:49,806
that if they want a
job related to science,

20
00:00:50,356 --> 00:00:54,276
that they could be a
photographer or an artist here
