About Juanita Leal:
Juanita Leal currently serves as an associate technical fellow and flight test engineer at The Boeing Company with expertise in Integration, Test and Evaluation in lab, ground, field, flight and space environments. Her technical impacts span across Boeing, the US Air Force and NASA in Test and Evaluation Engineering, Project Engineering and Systems Engineering. She earned her B.Ss and M.S. degrees in electrical engineering from Fresno State.

Leal’s path to technical and administrative leadership is an inspiration to our students, especially first-generation Latinas. Over the years, she has mentored numerous students, provided scholarships, and helped students succeed in their careers.

This year, the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (the largest of its kind in the world), recognized Leal with the Dr. Ellen Ochoa Award For Demonstrated Excellence by a Latina STEM Professional. Recipients demonstrate a commitment to excellence through their educational, professional, and technical achievements and demonstrate a commitment to supporting the expansion of STEM education and achievement by others. Dr. Ellen Ochoa award recipients are role models whose example inspires others, especially Latinas, to reach for the stars, as Dr. Ellen Ochoa did when she became the first Latina to travel into space.
