Cassidy, 17, was born and raised in California. She is a senior in high school -- without a license. Despite writing for her school yearbook, freelancing for her local newspaper, and blogging, she never runs out of things to say and has an opinion on virtually everything. She spends her free time searching for inspiration, listening to music, traveling, reading, and keeping up-to-date on her favorite TV shows (can you say Psych, Modern Family, or Pretty Little Liars?). As an aspiring journalist she hopes to move to the East Coast for college after filling out the dreaded Common App and completing the SATs.
