A Professional Agency for Doctoral Talent
From doctoral expertise to professional agency.
A doctorate gives you depth. Your career can give that expertise range.
More Than STEM helps doctoral-trained professionals turn deep expertise into professional value, understanding where it fits, positioning it with confidence, demonstrating it credibly, and evolving a career with range.
For doctoral talent at every stage, a first transition, a pivot, or the next move worth making.
From Tracey
Not sure where to start?
I hear this constantly: "I don't even know what I want — how do I figure out what to do next?" That's the most honest place to start. It means you're finally asking the right question.
Before the resume, before the networking — get clear on what you actually value. The Career Values Workbook is the first thing I'd hand anyone who came to me stuck.

A Quiz to Help You Find Your Path
I spent nearly 13 years at the bench before stepping away from academia. The hardest part wasn't the decision — it was not knowing what was possible, or how to get there. I built More Than STEM so you don't have to figure it out alone. This short quiz will help you understand where you are — and point you toward the right next step.
