NASA App is a mobile education tool intended for children and young teens, developed with the goal of teaching them about the LSP division of NASA and the processes they manage. This is done through a series of interactive minigames that will take the player through the entire process of launching a payload from signing a contract to assembling the delivery vehicle. This app is being developed in a collaboration between Full Sail University and the LSP division of NASA.
MY WORK
I came on the team as a Technical Producer and was in charge of managing the programming team and making sure they deliver all of their work on time without blocking each other. I was responsible for assigning tasks, leading team meetings, managing Perforce & Hansoft as well as attending all meetings with NASA to discuss progress.

After a few months on the project, I advanced into the role of Lead Producer. My responsibilities were in coordinating all the other producers, arranging and leading official meetings with NASA, adjusting high-level planning with staff from the university and managing any issues that might have come up during development.
