STEM Degree Holders - Fringe Careers & Unusual Jobs

Media Request! STEM-educated professionals working on the fringe. I am a freelance science journalist with an expertise in STEM careers. For an upcoming article pitch, I am looking to interview people with STEM degrees (BS, MS, or PhD) who work on the fringes of society. Do you have a weird job? Do you have an unusual profession? Do you work in sectors, industries, and organizations that are not mainstream or are surprising places to work or build one's careers, especially with a STEM education and degree? Here's an example: a #physicist who works for a city's department of sewers. Or a #chemist who works as a tattoo artist. Or a mathematician who is a burlesque performer. Or a neuroscientist who works as a funeral director. If this is you, I want to hear from you and possibly write about you for a major magazine! Please DM or email me Alaina Levine: alaina {at} alainalevine [dot] com Subject: fringe career Body: tell me: Your name Your job Your organization Your location I will email you, and if you are a match, will set up an appointment to interview you.
