Jessica Myron is the current manager for the Montana Space Grant Consortium’s Space Public Outreach Team. Where we give FREE presentations to K-12 students across the state of Montana.

Her background is in Physics and Astronomy where she obtained a BS in Physics at Texas A&M University. she has attended a couple CUWiP conferences in the past, one of which Texas A&M hosted and she gained vital experience working with a group of strong women to help plan a worthwhile conference, as an undergrad. In her free time I like to hike, assist in science outreach events, and eat huckleberry pie.
