About 20 of my classmates and I were very lucky to participate to the Reinventing Space Careers conference yesterday. Hearing about the experiences of professionals was an amazing opportunity to learn about the field.

Pictured above, Christina Giannopapa, is the Head of the Political Affairs Office in the Cabinet of the Director General of the European Space Agency (ESA) in Paris. She has an impressive number of other roles in the space industry, such as being a Resident Fellow at the European Space Policy Institute (ESPI) in Vienna.

Just below are my classmates, Abdul, Leigh and Sarah, future University of Glasgow graduates in Astrophysics - and space science/industry influencers!
