Jeanette’s Answer

You may want to consider a career in actuarial science. Insurance companies have actuaries who work in things such as setting premium rates, determining mortality rates (for life insurance) setting up financial reserves and assisting with information required for a company's financial reporting. I am not sure if this would be considered "pure math" but it may be an option that you want to explore.
