She is currently assigned to the Criminal Appeals Division. Before this assignment, Fournier was a Sex Crimes Trial Specialist, handling "high-profile sexual assault and domestic violence cases."

According to her campaign bio, Fournier has served on the School Board for Pythagoras Children’s Academy in Elmhurst, Illinois and is also actively involved in her church, St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox, where she serves on the Board of the Philoptohos (friend of the poor) Society, which helps those in need in the community.

Fournier was president of the Hellenic Bar Association in 2020-21 and currently serves as chairperson of its Board of Directors, according to her campaign bio.
