Hi, I’m Cassidy.

I’m a queer content creator, TV host, reporter, emcee, mental health advocate, and therapist-in-training. Yes, that’s a long list - but it is representative of who I am.

It all started when I was studying Broadcast Journalism at Emerson College in Boston, and got the opportunity to report at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Whistler, BC. I started creating YouTube videos to chronicle my time at the Olympics, and both the Olympics and online video creation were addicting.

After years of making YouTube videos, I ended up at KGW-TV, the NBC affiliate in Portland, Oregon. I started out as a traffic reporter, and eventually hosted my own 7pm evening talk show, Tonight With Cassidy.

I was ready for a new challenge after eight years at the station. So in 2020, I left full-time TV for the freelance world. It was around this time that I had started sharing about my own mental health online, and I realized that there was a chance to make my work feel even more meaningful.

Since then, I have traveled the world to report at more Olympic Games (7 in total), launched a mental health podcast, created video content for a variety of businesses, worked at other international sporting events, emceed fundraisers for amazing nonprofit organizations, and spent the rest of my time seeking a variety of mental health trainings.

I am always looking for new opportunities to use my passion, energy and skills. I also love figuring out how to combine my life experience with grief, mental health, and breast cancer in new, creative ways. Reach out if you would like to chat about any of it!
