all about me
Jessica Cassity, Content Pro
My career has evolved from journalist to strategist, touching all points in between.
Content matters
I like to say that writers were the original influencers – before social media, tips and trends were largely found in magazines and newspapers. Although the heyday of print publishing is over, the need for clear, impactful messaging is more important than every. My role continues to evolve, from journalist and storyteller to strategist with a big-picture vision.

Other interests and pursuits
Fitness was my main beat for many years, but now it’s part-time passion. I’m also a big-time reader (mostly fiction) and gardener (vegetables and flowers). To give back, I volunteer with Animal Rescue Foundation – fostering dogs alongside my two permanent pack members – and recently completed my term as Board Vice President for Humble Warrior Collective, a non-profit that brings resilience-building mindfulness and meditation to underserved communities.
