About this listen

Top of Mind Florida is where we mix Headlines, Hard Questions and Humor with stories that matter.

This week, Michael Williams and Brian Crowley talk with a Florida rocket engineer from L3Harris Aerojet Rocketdyne who helps lead the Artemis mission. She shares her inspiring path from Wellington High School to FAU to the frontlines of America’s space program, managing the RL-10 engine that powers spacecraft into lunar orbit.

She opens up about:

  • Overcoming barriers in a male-dominated field
  • The mentors who shaped her career
  • How diversity fuels better problem-solving
  • Florida’s role in the future of space exploration
  • Inspiring students to dream bigger in STEM

From rocket launches that never get old to her mission of motivating the next generation, this conversation is about purpose, perseverance, and progress.
