Finishing my 2nd visit to Michoacán. This time a 4 city tour to marginalized communities of Lazaro Cardenas, Los Reyes, Apatzingán and Zamora. Visited my wife’s hometown of Cotija. Thank you Sec of Education, Patricia Flores, @educacion_mich and Gov. @ARBedolla. More talks ahead!
A very quick visit to Guadalajara where I presented at the Expo in Guadalajara for a conference where 8,000 people showed up! Amazing vibe and energy at this synergistic conference!
From Los Angeles to Cancun via a red eye to give a talk at the Canacar conference. A trucking logistics organization with members all over Mexico! @canacarmexico
Awesome group of folks!
On a 3-city tour of Michoacán! Visited my parents’ hometown of La Piedad, plus Zitácuaro & Morelia. Honored to give talks at the invitation of Sec of Education, Patricia Flores, @educacion_mich, and meet Gov. @ARBedolla. More talks ahead as we continue across Michoacán!

We are working on this project with Prima Luce of Italy, DigiStar of the U.S. and Jumbo of Mexico. The project is in Morelia, Michoacán, Mexico. Installing a dual telescope observatory, planetarium and interactive museum. This is in my parents’ home state!
Some projects have a special meaning.
Working with Tierra Luna Engineering and with @Astro_Jose is always an honor. Jose went to space, and now he helps to bring the universe closer to people also in Mexico. This is exactly why we do what we do.
Proud of @PrimaLuceLab team!
Last week I was at the League of California Cities @CalCities annual Conference & Expo in Anaheim, CA. All city elected officials and then some attended. Took a picture with my esteemed mayor of Stockton, Christina Fugazi @ChristinaFugazi & other friends as well. Awesome event!
Full circle moment! I began my career with @FranklinCovey’s 7 Habits & Franklin Planner—tools at @Livermore_Lab that helped me reach space. Now I motivate the motivators by giving them a virtual conference! Honored!!!
I support AB 713 and recognize today’s political realities. But a student’s opportunity to learn and succeed should never depend on the political climate.

Last Saturday, I had the opportunity to visit Woodinville, just outside Seattle and speak to an international group from @Microsoft. What an impressive, high-performing team! Always enjoy the opportunity to share my story and connect with talented people from around the world. 🚀
It was great listening to NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman @NASAAdmin talk during his visit to Lawrence Livermore National Lab @Livermore_Lab . Both organizations have many things in common! Looking forward to LLNL growing their presence in the aerospace industry! Photos: LLNL

Loved going to @hotelxcaretmx in Cancun to talk to the group from Deloitte. So much to do there! High performers from all over Latin America! They had an impressive list of speakers including @AndreAgassi and Steffi Graf, a true power couple! Oh, I gave this talk in Spanish!
From Salt Lake City to Las Vegas to Cancun—all in just one week, sharing my story! 🚀
