Ellen Ochoa—the first Latina to go to space—shares career lessons she learned during her time at NASA.
In 1993, Ellen Ochoa became the first Latina to travel to space after a career in STEM that built up to that moment and yet one of her top career lessons comes from a different part of her life.
Keeping this advice in mind has helped inform Ochoa’s leadership style whether she was a research engineer at Ames Research Center, an astronaut at Johnson Space Center, or when she became the 11th director to lead Johnson Space Center. Now, she will be celebrated by the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute during their Hispanic Heritage Month celebrations.
As she thinks back on the things that helped her when exploring a career in STEM, particularly during a time when diversity was less present, Ochoa credits professors who mentored her and helped her visualize the future she wanted for herself and encourages Latinas at the start of their careers to do the same.
