Houston, we have a podcast.

George is a veteran of 38 years at NASA and has a wonderful story of getting to NASA and making a difference

communications background. She's now using her knowledge and skills to help

engage the Spanish-speaking community through communication efforts here at NASA.

George and Anna give their perspectives on diversity and inclusion at NASA from the Hispanic community,
