Many thanks to Ron Ottinger, Teresa Drew and everyone at the STEM Next Opportunity Fund who made this event possible.Leanne Caret is executive vice president and senior advisor for The Boeing Company and a member of the company’s Executive Council. It was an honor to share time with all of the talented women in STEM, and I can’t wait to see the Moonshot engage with one million more girls in STEM through afterschool and summer programs over the next five years! #MillionGirlsMoonshot is an initiative of the STEM NEXT OPPORTUNITY FUND, which seeks to re-imagine who can engineer, who can build, and who can make.
Mary Cunningham, who inspired me to embrace my love of numbers. Smith, PMP Smith and I heard from amazing women who are truly an inspiration – they’re making the world a better place simply by being their authentic selves. What made it even more motivating was hearing the shout-outs to teachers and mentors who have helped pave the way. One of my “Rosie” mentors was my 9th grade algebra teacher, Ms. Yesterday, I had a “Rosie the Riveter” moment as I participated with Boeing teammates supporting the #MillionGirlsMoonshot.

A big thank you to the entire team who made this happen!įACT SHEET: Vice President Harris Announces Commitments to Inspire, Prepare, and Employ the Space Workforce - The White House
It is critical that we attract and develop the talent needed to design and build the future of space exploration, and it was an honor to represent Boeing to bring this to life.
