  I definitely am still thinking of whether I should change my career to become a science teacher at a school or university lecturer. I like working with students and helping people understand more about science! I also think it would be really cool to work at a science museum and design the exhibitions and give tours to inspire scientists. I am a very chatty person and enjoy talking to people so I think these jobs would be really fun!

  I have always been interested in conservation and think I would enjoy being a conservationist. I like the idea of protecting the environment and vulnerable animals.

  I would still love to work with or around control systems but maybe more on the process side of things like as a chemical or process engineer.

I would probably have pushed more for research and tried to stay in a University research setting. Probably working on parasitic copepods.
