Engineer
My name is Debbie Martinez. I have 3 kids, 1 large cat, and a tank full of fish.
I work at NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) in Hampton, Virginia. I’m a
Computer Engineer and I’m currently serving as a Space Ops Technology
Manager for the Space Operations Program Office.
I went to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University to learn about computer
science and engineering. But I came to learn I really liked airplanes after I was
in an aviation school. It was when I was working with flight simulators at
NASA LaRC that I realized -- why not learn how to fly the real thing if I could
already“fly” the simulator. So off I went to Langley Air Force Base’s Aero
Club to learn.
I loved math and science as a young girl. I never really thought about what I
could do with it except to become a doctor. But as I learn more about the
different fields of science and technology, the more interested I was in it and
the more I wanted to make it my career. Hey, I figured you might as well
love being what you will be working as 8 hours a day!
At Langley Air Force Base’s Aero Club I learned to fly a Cessna 152 (C-152).
I don’t own an airplane, but while working at NASA LaRC as a Flight Ops
Engineer, I was able to serve as a co-pilot on-board our Beechcraft King Air
B-200 research aircraft. I also have stick time on-board two other of NASA’s
aircraft, the Lancair Columbia and Cessna C-206.
