While there, she was able take part in community organizing while focusing on issues such as education reform and fair election funding. After graduating, Courtney continued working as a bookkeeper for a public relations firm in her hometown, a position that she had held since high school. That position led her to become the Executive Assistant to a Financial Planner which allowed her to develop a sound understanding of many financial reports and concepts.
