Over the holiday break, I sat down for a virtual meeting with Alaina G. Levine -  entrepreneur, professional speaker and communications consultant - to learn more about her career and creative process. Not only is she the president of Quantum Success Solutions, a career consultant agency for scientists and engineers, she is also a professional speaker, science journalist, and corporate comedian. When looking at the qualifications under her belt, I quickly wondered how she balanced all of these projects. She is the jack of all trades, master of many, and I wanted to know more.
