TESTIMONIALS
"Cassidy is ready to take on any challenge in sports broadcasting. She has excellent on-air presence, strong writing skills, and a passion for sports storytelling. She is incredibly hard working, dedicated to her craft, and has a wealth of real world experience. Cassidy comes out of school prepared to succeed. Any company will be lucky to have her on their team!"
- Maggie Mayes, CMU Broadcasting Professor
"I worked with Cassidy Cobb at Berlin Raceway. Cassidy is an impressive young woman with a great desire to not only learn the nuts and bolts of broadcasting, but the fineness it takes to merge the skills that can be taught with the personality that has to come from within. I am very excited to see her career unfold as it's becoming harder and harder to find people interested in broadcasting arts. Her drive is much needed in the field."
- Andy O'Riley, PxP announcer Berlin Raceway
"Cassidy Cobb and I have road throughout our entire college journey together at Central Michigan University. We went through not only the same Broadcasting program, but the same Communication program and I loved every minute of knowing I had her to count on. It has been an honor working along side her for so many years and watching her grow into the amazing host she is today. She excels in on-air presence, writing and creativity and will deliver all these things with confidence and authority. She will be an amazing addition to any team."
- Madelyn Miller, fellow CMU alumna, producer at WDIV
