About Cassandra

Cassie was born and raised in Cupertino, California, where apple orchards gave way to Apple computers. Moving to Idaho in 2018, she first attended College of Western Idaho, transferring to Boise State this year as a junior. She is currently pursuing her BFA in Creative Writing and hopes to pursue an MFA after graduation. Outside of writing, Cassie likes cooking and baking (though she is not very good at either), and coddling her two-year-old black lab, Big Mac.
