Academic-Adjacent Careers with Amber

EPISODE 19 | Amber steps out from behind-the-scenes this episode as our second guest for the season. We are talking all things academic-adjacent, sometimes also referred to as alt-ac. These are career paths that many of us take post graduate work that is not the traditional route, i.e. becoming a professor. Stay tuned to hear Amber's story from a young girl in the Midwest with an interest in ancient history, to her Master's program in Egyptology at UCLA, museum work, and her many twists and turns since.
