Cassidy began teaching at HOPE Christian Academy in the 2024-25 school year.  She currently teaches 7th Grade Homeroom, Bible, 7th and 8th Grade Science, and an elective in Lifeskills/Technology.

Cassidy's spiritual journey began in Utah, where she grew up Mormon. In college, she became a Christian after meeting the authentic Jesus in the Bible and has since been compelled by grace to dedicate her life to him. She has pursued her faith with passion, serving alongside her husband, Brian, in formal ministry for the past 10 years. Married to Brian since 2008, Cassidy loves being his partner in life and in ministry. With many years of experience leading and teaching in various church ministries, including Sunday School, Women's Bible Studies, and Youth Ministries, Cassidy is deeply passionate about connecting every aspect of life and learning to our faith, and about how we live our Christian walk.

Beyond her ministry background, Cassidy brings a rich and varied work history to her teaching. She has experience in diverse fields such as home staging, property management, commercial cleaning, nannying, and retail sales. This wide range of work experience helps guide her work as a teacher every day, equipping her to connect with students on many levels.

Cassidy and Brian are proud parents to their two boys, Cole and Bo, who are her pride and joy and also attend HOPE Christian Academy. The family has been actively serving and worshipping at Christ's Community Church in Chandler for the past five years, following four years of ministry in Texas. Their journey
