      Comic book - is that a tribute to Lauren Lyons?
      She was a fabulous educator when on the SpaceX youtube streams, and seems to be an in-demand person for getting space industry startups off the ground.

    Ellie, truly professional appearance and poise. You have upped your game in a serious manner. Everyday, interviewers end up wasting time trying to show off their own knowledge instead of allowing the interviewee to finish a sentence. You let the interviewee speak and allow them to be the focus. Excellent job.
