SWF Thanks Interns Kaila Pfrang, Renata Knittel Kommel, and Kathryn Walsh

Tuesday, September 15, 2020

SWF recently said farewell to our latest group of summer interns. Each student provided substantive support to key SWF programs. Ms. Pfrang joined SWF for a 2-month internship from MIT and worked with Director of Program Planning Brian Weeden on a variety of space security and sustainability topics. Ms. Walsh joined SWF in May and worked with Director of Private Sector Programs Ian Christensen, and project partner Caelus Foundation, on a research project examining misperceptions between U.S. and Chinese commercial space industry stakeholders. Finally, Ms. Knittel Kommel primarily supported the Summit for Space Sustainability and helped transition it from an in-person to successful virtual event.
