E57: Interview with Director Rita Miller on STEM Education, DoD STARBASE, & Project-based learning
In today’s episode, I get to have an amazing conversation with Director Rita Miller of the DoD STARBASE program at NAS Pensacola.
Professional Biography
Ms. Rita Miller moved to Pensacola, Florida just over a year ago to take the position of Director for the Department of Defense STARBASE Pensacola Youth Education Program at NAS Pensacola. Before this position, she was the Deputy Director/Director of DoD STARBASE Oklahoma for 5 years. She has a Master of Science in Education and holds an Elementary Principal Certificate. Additionally, Rita was a public school educator for 15 years, where she taught 5th and 6th grades.
Rita also served in the United States Air Force and Oklahoma Air National Guard where she was commissioned as an officer and was assigned various roles including Comptroller, Maintenance, and Support Group Commander, respectively. She retired in Dec 2015 at the rank of Colonel after 31 years serving our great country.
