A south Texas native, Cassandra was born and raised in the small border town of Del Rio.

Her husband’s Air Force career has given Cassandra the unique opportunity to cover news all over the country. Her television news career started at KTXS in Abilene, Texas and has spanned other regions including Georgia, Washington, D.C. and California.

Cassandra’s work in Sacramento on behalf of a family desperate for their loved one’s remains to return home from WWII earned her the prestigious Large Market Regional Edward R. Murrow Award for Feature Reporting. She is the proud recipient of a second Regional Edward R. Murrow Award for Writing, has won two Emmy Awards, as well as two Associated Press Broadcaster’s Awards for Public Service and Feature Reporting.

Cassandra and her husband have two young daughters and a Goldendoodle named Riggins. Cassandra donates her time and talents as a member of the Board of Directors for the Heart of Arkansas United Way.

In her free time, Cassandra has interests outside of the newsroom which include reading, sewing, enjoying the outdoors, binge-watching true crime shows, and calling the Hogs.
