“When we established the Office of Technology, Policy, and Strategy, the goal was to address a need for strategic advice that cuts across our mission directorates, centers, and other organizations to guide NASA’s success. I am confident Charity and the OTPS team will help us continue that crucial work,” said Nelson. “I want to thank former OTPS Associate Administrator Bhavya Lal and Ellen Gersten, who stepped in after Bhavya’s departure, for their leadership and guidance.
Prior to joining NASA, Weeden served as vice president for global space policy and government relations at Astroscale U.S., leading its spaceflight safety and long-term space sustainability efforts. Before Astroscale, she was senior director of policy at the Satellite Industry Association. She is a 23-year veteran of the Royal Canadian Air Force, with more than 2,000 flight crew hours on the CP-140 long-range patrol aircraft and assignments that included deputy sensor manager for the U.S.
Weeden earned her undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering from the Royal Military College of Canada and a master’s degree in Space Science from the University of North Dakota. She is also an alumnus of the International Space University Summer Session Program, where her team project focused on in-space servicing.https://www.nasa.gov/offices/otps/home
