Hi there! My name is Cassady and I am originally from Chincoteague Island. My grandparents were raised here, as well as my mother... our roots run deep! Currently I reside just off of Chincoteague Island with my three-year-old daughter, whom I love to spend all of my time with. We love to ride over to the island and enjoy each other's company - our favorites are the waterpark, nature trails, and all of the delicious food!
