The field of quantum technology can sound highly perplexing - until you meet someone like Elise Usunier.
In this conversation, the Chief Commercialization Officer at Zero Point Cryogenics shows how a non-linear career path, a willingness to learn, and a customer-first mindset can open the door to one of the most advanced fields in technology.
Elise shares how she went from marketing and wine sales to an MBA, then into software, and finally into quantum hardware - without a physics background.
What makes her story compelling is not just the pivot, but the way she kept finding transferable skills and using them to step into rooms she was never supposed to enter.
We discuss:
- The mindset that allowed her to change industries without starting over
- Why “I can learn” is a career strategy, not just a slogan
- What resilience looks like when timelines are long, stakes are high, and supply chain issues can derail progress
- Why women do not need a technical degree to build a real career in STEM
Essential listening if you’ve ever wondered how to build a meaningful career in tech without a traditional path, or what it actually takes to thrive once you get there.
