Cassandra’s time in school seeking her Bachelors in Human Resource Management has mostly focused on administrative and office studies, which have helped hone her skills with various computer platforms. She is naturally good at communicating and can start up a conversation with anyone for any reason.

Cassandra was born and raised in Northern San Diego County in California. After being raised all along the West Coast, she moved to the North East to upstate New York with her family. When she is not here, she spends her time with her husband, three boys, and daughter, adventuring and exploring nature. You can usually find them swimming, fishing, hiking, taking road trips, or relaxing at home in her hammock with a nice (and ridiculously oversized) cup of coffee. Cassandra lives in a small country town just outside of Syracuse. That location is ideal for her love of exploring the great outdoors and finding scenery on road trips.
