Cassandra is the benchmark in creative leadership. If you are looking for a leader, a forward thinker, a mentor, a systematic problem solver who delivers results, look no further. It is rare in my experience to find someone who can balance a fraction of these skills, but Cassandra does it daily while making it look easy. As a leader and manager Cassandra always provided clear goals and tasks while setting expectations for both designers and stakeholders. This made completing even complex projects manageable for all involved. Furthermore, should any project end up in the weeks, she would be there to right the ship and support her team. Her direct communication style left no question unanswered and no direction unclear always with the success of her team in mind. Aside from effectively managing our team’s workload and goals, as a people manager she cared deeply about her team’s well being and cultivated a culture of balance and respect.—Jeff E

I had the pleasure of working with Cassandra and her team for 3 years. In this time I have found her to be one of the most kindest yet firm managers I have encountered. Her team always had a high standard of quality and an empowerment to improve not only their own work but the processes in which they work. In times of great need she has always taken on the extra work to ensure her team is successful and maintain a healthy work life balance. When she has taken on work her team was confident in providing her feedback without fear of punishment. I would gladly work with her or any team she leads in the future and believe any team would be fortunate to have her within it. —Justin E

Working with Cassandra is like working with a designer and a project manager all in one person. She balances creative vision with pragmatism. Instead of “no” she will come with a “what if we…”. I appreciate the way she tries to crush entropy, herd cats, and any other cliche you would like to ascribe to project management. She always has an eye on how to improve a situation, a process, or a pice of work. She also has incredibly adorable dogs, which is a huge win in my book. —Patrick B
