1) So to start off, a lot of people

         don’t know what audio engineering
         entails, so can you tell us exactly

         what you do for your job for NASA?


         So audio engineering is broad. You can
         do live TV, which pretty much is what I

         do, you can do it for movies, music, in
         the studio and going on tours, so

         audio engineering is what you call all

         of us together but when you get into
         it you have your Live TV, mixing, and

         mastering engineers. But what I do for
         NASA, I am the lead audio engineer                      work, but I wanted to do more with

         for      live     TV     broadcasting          for      audio so I started searching places like
                                                                 LinkedIn       and       indeed.com          and
         International         Space       Station       in
                                                                 monsterjobs.com           and     looked      for
         Houston, Texas. I also am the Chief
                                                                 different job opportunities and I came
         engineer of NASA’s podcast “Houston
                                                                 across this one job that didn’t
         We Have A Podcast”, and I also do
                                                                 particularly say NASA, it said ‘I’m a
         audio work for their YouTube videos,
                                                                 federal contractor’, and it had the
         Facebook lives, and pretty much                         contractor’s name on it and I had no

         expanded all over now.                                  idea who these people were, but the

                                                                 job description matched exactly what I
                                                                 wanted to do, so I filled out the
          2) How did you land a career like
                                                                 application. But I didn’t find out that it
          this working for NASA a such a
                                                                 was about NASA until I got to the area
          young age?                                             which was really interesting. But you’d

          It’s very interesting. So I graduated                  be surprised of what kind of jobs are

          from college in 2015, and I had this                   hidden on websites like Indeed and
          part time job doing corporate AV                       other job search sites.
