That's all stem subjects and the field is so wide!
First of all, I think you should decide whether you love working in the labs (doing experiments) or more of a client-facing person? Biology is very wide and maybe you should try to determine which branch of biology - human, plants, animals that you are interested in? Biology and Chemistry are also a very popular combination for most of the STEM degree.
-biochemist/biotech is a pretty popular option for people who like biology and chemistry but this is more like a lab-based job
-pharmacist
-forensic scientist
-chemical engineer
There's also something called aerospace engineering if you would like to go into the aerospace field - but this is less likely to have biology and chemistry involve
