Hi, I’m Cassandra.
Check out DC Capital Chronicles to learn more about me and my tours in the DC area.
I’ve lived in Washington, D.C., for nearly 40 years. I adore the city’s rich history, vibrant culture, and political scene. I’ve encountered some of the most fascinating people in the world, and I’m captivated by DC’s European-inspired charm.
I’m a dynamic communicator, storyteller, and educator, bringing a wealth of experience from travel, hospitality, media, and wellness to every interaction. I thrive on curating compelling experiences, and I bring destinations to life by weaving together historical insight with warmth and clarity. I’m adept at engaging diverse audiences with poise, humor, and a deep well of knowledge. My firsthand experience with U.S. history, law, and governance enriches every tour I lead.
Storytelling with Substance: I bring a rare ability to weave historical context, intellectual depth, cultural fluency, and personal connection into every tour. I don’t just share facts—I create meaning. My degree in writing and study of literature enables me to craft compelling narratives.
Polished yet Personal: With experience at PBS, Capitol Hill, NBC News, and inside the Supreme Court, I offer gravitas and polish. My background in yoga and restaurant hospitality makes me approachable, intuitive, and warm.
Scholar + Host: I’m equally comfortable decoding the symbolism of a cathedral window or coordinating a seamless guest experience. As a luxury travel concierge, I design worthwhile experiences, handle all manner of crises, and am sensitive to pacing. My mind is a guide, but my heart is the host.
Lifelong Learner and Educator: My quest for knowledge is contagious, and my love of learning makes me a generous, inspiring teacher. I model intellectual curiosity with emotional intelligence. I’m committed to creating transformative experiences for your guests.
I don’t just offer tours, I craft stories. Stories you can enter and experience yourself. Memories you can treasure and share. And the best stories surprise you and delight you, right?
