Cassandra is a theater and movie producer in Los Angeles.  She received her BA in Theater Arts from the University of California, Davis.  As part of the creative team she has developed shows at Florida Studio Theater, Los Angeles Edgefest, and countless American Sign Language community events in the greater Los Angeles area.  She directed for film CJ Jones’ (Baby Driver) one man show What Are You…DEAF?, and works with CJ to fine tune his currently touring show World Adventurist.

Cassandra began teaching herself American Sign Language (ASL) at age 8, when a supportive grandmother gave her a basic ASL book.  At around the same time she discovered her love of acting and theater.  She became fully involved in the Deaf community while working with the Tony Award winning theater company Deaf West Theater.  While acting at Deaf West, she was able to work Tony winning writer Mark Medoff (Children of a Lessor God), Tony winning actress Phyllis Frelich, Deanne Bray, and CJ Jones.  As a dancer she has worked with the Tony nominated choreographer of RENT Marlies Yearby, LA Opera choreographer Heather Lipson Bell, and Fosse specialist Suzanne Carlton.
