.As a Human Resource Organization Partner at NASA Main Office, Selina Salgado describes her job as helping with "all points people" for the company. By facilitating technical answers to personnels (HR) problems and also demands, she succeeds at an often-underestimated aspect of Digital Makeover (DT): the social side. As a champion of community property, understanding sharing, and also digital upskilling, Selina was actually a simple option for this month's Digital Transformer honor..Selina started at NASA in 2019 as a Pathways intern and also formerly worked as a mentoring coordinator for Marshall Space Tour Facility (MSFC), which is actually where her Digital Makeover trip started.

In collaboration along with Jess Deibert, DT Digital Academy Lead, Selina created the brand new Makeover Tips (TxTips) set, which includes NASA staff members' tech-related tips for performing their job. The on-the-spot attraction of the community-led series resulted in speaker requests for TxTip discussions from numerous other workplaces at NASA, including the Office of Stalk Involvement..Very most just recently, Selina has come to be a crucial contributor as well as partner in NASA's Summer months of AI upskilling initiative to aid staff members optimize the benefits of AI while dealing with dangers. As a self-taught designer, Selina has produced several resources and also applications to improve agency-wide collaboration and information collection. She leveraged PowerApps, Electrical power Automate, as well as Electrical power BI, incorporated along with SharePoint, to nourish records to a dashboard used due to the Organization Main AI Policeman to brief the Administrator on impact metrics coming from the Summer season of artificial intelligence project. Selina also established and also carried out several activities to involve and also delight the labor force around this project, featuring becoming pregnant the organization's first "War of the Bots" celebration. Her Reddit-style "Inquire Me Everything" celebration assisted employees understand the variations in large foreign language models by pitting ChatGPT versus Microsoft CoPilot to respond to participant-submitted prompts and concerns.
