Major(s) of all individuals presenting this work Bio of all individuals presenting this work My name is Maansi Verma and I am from Suwanee, Georgia. I hold a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering from Mercer University, where I developed a strong foundation in engineering design, analysis, and mathematics. I am currently a graduate student pursuing Systems Engineering. Currently work as a civilian Electronics Engineer with the United States Air Force. Professionally, my career goal is to work in systems engineering roles that focus on integrating complex systems, managing risk, and supporting decision-making in defense and large-scale technical organizations. In the future, I would like to manage and work with other engineers to simplify the process. My research interests include systems, risk and reliability analysis, and improving the connection between technical design and operational outcomes. Poster Title Abstract Dr. Sally Ride was the first American woman to travel into space and paved the way for young people, especially women, across the world. She demonstrated strong technical expertise, ethical integrity, and a collaborative leadership style throughout her career at NASA, including during her historic space missions and her role in the Challenger investigation. Ride exemplified effective leadership behaviors described in The Leadership Experience and demonstrated the Visionary Family motivation outlined in The Motivation Code through her long-term commitment to science education, safety, and inclusion. Overall, her career illustrates how competence, integrity, and a focus on future impact can create lasting leadership influence in high-risk environments.
