Since her arrival at OU in 2013 to study music, Cassandra has been on a journey of academic and professional growth. Her passion for supporting students altered her career path and has since led her to teaching college-level courses in music, culture, leadership, and college preparedness. She has also taken on the role of teaching study abroad courses for pre-health students, focusing on cross-cultural patient care and the influence of colonialism on healthcare. Currently, Cassandra is dedicated to her Ph.D. studies in Educational Studies, demonstrating her commitment to continuous learning. In her free time, she enjoys training her dog, Rollo, to perform new tricks.


Eve of Nations! It's an event that showcases cultures and traditions of international students at OU, and there is food! The event has run for over 50 years and is always full of great, diverse performances!


I think it's fun to get to know each other and learn from each other; students have information I don't have, and I have information students don't have. It's truly great to put the pieces together... together.


Make a plan but be open to the plan changing. Planning is great, and it is one my favorite elements of teaching and advising. But if I've learned one thing-- the plan will always change, and that change doesn't have to be bad.
