Note sull'episodio

What does it really mean to 'know how to use the tools'?

In this episode of What She Does, we sit down with Cassie Homsi, Sales & Operations Analytics Manager and Technical Trainer in the beverage distribution industry. With nearly two decades of software engineering behind her, Cassie has built a career doing something rare: she speaks both fluent technical and fluent human.

She went from building insurance software in Texas to riding along with beverage salespeople in Southern California — all in the name of understanding the business from the ground up. Her greatest skill isn't any specific tool. It's translation.

In this episode:

✦ The difference between knowing the buttons and knowing the story

✦ Why curiosity must be balanced with tight boundaries

✦ How AI enhances — not replaces — her role

✦ Career pivots into tech and analytics

✦ Being a woman in a male-dominated technical space — and what's changed

✦ The explosive rise of non-alcoholic beverages

Her advice: learn broadly. Define your role tightly. Keep going.
