Cathie Meetre brings a technical background in scientific programming for flight experiments in the Solar Physics and High Energy Astrophysics at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. Over a 20-year technical career she developed and flew real-time, space-borne neural networks and contributed to algorithm development for sky tessellations and protocols for spacecraft communications. During this technical career, Cathie also managed successively larger groups of IT professionals culminating in a contract with nearly 100 scientists, engineers and programmers supporting Space and Earth Sciences directorates at Goddard. She is a trained meeting facilitator and the author of a number of publications including technical papers on neural networks and IT Architecture studies. Business development and proposal management and authorship were natural outgrowths of her business, writing and technical interests, and Cathie continues to specialize in these areas as a major contributor to ERT's growth. In tandem, she also plays the role of transition manager for newly won contracts, combining her experience as a manager with the ability to reach out warmly to new customers and staff and bring ERT services to them in a streamlined and efficient manner. Cathie has an M.Sc. in Computer Science from Johns Hopkins University and a background as an educator and writer. |
