"My career with the Navy and NASA gave me an incredible chance to
showcase public service to which I am dedicated, and what we can
accomplish on the big challenges of our day. I am humbled and excited by
new opportunities for me to support and share the amazing work NASA is
doing to help us travel farther into the solar system and work with the
next generation of science and technology leaders."
