Cassandra Loucy
Cassandra is a born and raised Vermonter who currently lives in her tiny hometown of Monkton. She met her husband, Ryan, in high school, and they started dating when she was studying business at UVM and he was serving in the Marine Corps. The two got married in 2015, and in March 2016, their daughter Reagan was born! She is a stay at home mom, and when she is not chasing their busy girl (or fur child Ellie Mae) around, she runs a mom blog at littlegreenpear.com and owns a small business by the same name making and selling baby gifts and accessories.
