One of Orlando’s foremost defense technology experts was featured on a general interest podcast.
Cassie Muffley, who is the Defense Innovation OnRamp Hub’s program director, was featured on “The ‘Everybody Has A Podcast’ Podcast,” a production of Orlando Tech News founder Marco Santana.
Although the discussion covers her early upbringing in Montana and how she stumbled into the defense industry, Muffley also shares some insights into Orlando’s tech community.
Included in the conversation is an anecdote about how she found herself singing opera in Orlando’s Steinmetz Hall at a tech conference in Orlando thanks to Dave Vanz of The Orlando Life.
Although there was no real goal other than to engage in what she called “pure shenanigans,” it was a show-stopping moment at the 2023 Immerse Global Summit in 2023.
“For me, the special part of it was two of my worlds colliding,” she said. “That’s something I feel like, just on a personal level, needs to happen more often in the tech and innovation community.”
