She began her journalism career while attending Central Connecticut State University, when she joined the Central Recorder, and subsequently filled in for every position that needed help. In 1993, she earned a bachelor of arts degree in English with a minor in journalism. After college and a brief stint reporting at the New Britain Herald, she moved to Central Connecticut and became the Middletown Press features editor in 1997. There, she wrote an award-winning mothering column, won several Society of Professional Journalists awards for news and features and most notably helped coordinate coverage of Wesleyan University's loss of student Johanna Justin-Jinich, eventually moving to senior editor at the Press. Cassandra is a longtime resident of Middletown, where she lives with her two boys. In November 2010, she became editor of Haddam-East Haddam Patch and took over as editor of Middletown Patch in March 2011. She is vice chair of the Middletown Arts Commission and a member of the Board of Education communications committee as well as a longtime volunteer at Macdonough Elementary School and budding photographer.
