“I have just started a small business this year. Cassandra has helped me on a couple of occasions with media releases so I can put my messaging out ensuring it is succinct and professional. She has delivered these very timely and at a very reasonable rate. I feel like a valued client even though my jobs are small and infrequent. I look forward to more dealings in the future.”
– Jeanene, Founder and Event Manager, Winederlust, Canberra
“Cassie has had a huge impact on our organisation. She significantly raised the profile of our charity and has been a vital part of the growth of our charity, introducing us to the benefits of social media and managing these for us. She has fantastic written and verbal communications skills and an incredibly caring and empathetic attitude. She is a first class marketing professional and there could be no better advocate for any organisation.”
– Maria Munday, Business Manager, Malvern Special Families
“Cassandra has supported Escott Hunt as a journalist and media trainer on exercises since 2008. She develops excellent relations with everyone she works with and that includes Admirals and Chief Constables, ships’ companies and emergency services personnel on the ground. As a journalist she produces tightly-focused articles, uses her initiative and goes the extra mile, even when circumstances are working against her. As a media trainer she is sensitive and intuitive. She has been required to familiarise herself with complex NATO operations, sensitive nuclear accident response scenarios and highly-charged riot situations and she has always exceeded expectations.”
– Susan Escott, Managing Director, Escott Hunt Ltd
“Cass is first and foremost a wonderful human being, a consummate professional and always a real pleasure to work with. We’ve been embedded usually a week or so at a time on board many a battle ship. I wouldn’t think twice about about working with her again and can’t recommend her highly enough.”
– Abdi Cadani, CBS News
“I have worked with Cassandra in various roles as an embedded journalist. Cassandra has probably more experience of reporting from sea than anyone, and despite sometimes adverse conditions including rolling seas and lack of sleep is always cheerful and willing to plough on and get the package sent. Cassandra is extremely adventurous and well travelled and having reported from pirate-infested waters off Somalia amongst other places. I would whole heartedly recommend her for any reporting assignments wherever they might take her.”
