"I was extremely impressed with Cassadee's professionalism and abilities throughout the shoot," Durkin notes... Cassadee has great instincts playing to the camera, which significantly elevated the production value of our project." Cassadee was recommended to Kodak by Dominick Centi, her manager.

...When you consider the total package of talent possessed, Cassadee seems destined for tremendous success.
