My name is Manuel Scheuernstuhl, and I am a Fulbright scholar and journalist at Columbia University. I am currently writing an article focused on Senator Kirsten Gillibrand's upcoming push for a Senate hearing on UFOs, likely taking place after the November elections, to review the work and progress of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO). As the Director of AARO, I believe your insights would be invaluable for this piece. I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to conduct a brief 10-minute interview with you regarding your office's work, its progress on UAP assessments, and how the upcoming hearings could impact national security discussions. I am available tomorrow between 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM, after 5:00 PM, or on Friday before 12:30 PM for a quick Zoom meeting or phone call. Please let me know if any of these times work for you. Thank you for considering this request, and I look forward to hearing from you. 1
