There’s no two doubts about it; Miriam Micael has a cool job. She’s a project management engineer with the Canadian Space Agency.

Miriam has worked on several projects since joining the CSA three years ago, including working as a risk coordinator with Canada’s 1.2-billion dollar RADARSAT Constellation Mission, which launched last June.

On this episode of Run It Like a Girl, Miriam talks about a new initiative at the Space Agency, the Junior Astronaut initiative where activities revolve around three themes: fitness and nutrition, science and tech, and teamwork and communications.
