I think that it is a very interesting idea to pivot from science to graphic design. I have never heard of anyone doing that before. Most people think that you need to do an MBA or something like that before you can make money as a graphic designer. Also try https://masterbundles.com/lgbt-gift-ideas/ source for free gift ideas. But this guy just went out there and did it himself.
