If you have a liberal arts degree, or graduated from a liberal arts college, I'm sure someone down the line has asked you, "What are you going to do with that degree?".

You asked, she's answering:
Courtnie Takata-Lee is a Software Engineering Manager at Relativity where she leads the Release Management team.

When not orchestrating complex software releases, Courtnie cheers on her son at baseball games and attempts to improve her cooking skills.
