Biography

Before his work with NASA, Paul Sean Hill served in the United States Air Force as a U.S. Air Force Captain and satellite operations officer. 

During his 25 years at NASA, Paul first developed space station construction techniques. Later, he led flights from Mission Control as a Space Shuttle and International Space Station Flight Director. He supported 24 missions as a Flight Director from 1996 through 2005, culminating as the Lead Shuttle Flight Director for the return-to-flight on STS-114 after the Columbia accident.

Eventually, Paul became Director of Mission Operations in 2007. As Director of Mission Operations, Paul was responsible for all aspects of human spaceflight mission planning, training, and Mission Control. In other words, he was responsible for a $650M per year enterprise. During the seven years Paul served in that role, he led a critical leadership transformation, revolutionized NASA’s culture, dramatically reduced costs, and increased capability, all while still conducting highly successful missions in space.

His professional awards include:

  • The Rotary National Award for Space Achievement’s Stellar Award
  • The NASA Distinguished Service Medal
  • The NASA Exceptional Service Medal
  • 2 NASA Outstanding Leadership Medals
  • and the Presidential Rank Award of Meritorious Executive
