About the Author

Cassie McClure is a writer who first stumbled into a journalism degree because she didn't want to analyze other people's writing as an English major. She picked up a German degree since she already spoke the language, but she really should have picked Spanish.
As an elder millennial, Cassie McClure waited out the not-so-Great Recession by getting a master's in rhetoric to follow up a similarly useful BA in journalism. She worked in a university library for a good long while but also had a stint as an analyst in an open-source intelligence lab, which lends itself to fun stories at cocktail parties.

As a German American, she navigates her bicultural background alongside her bicultural marriage to a Mexican national -- with whom she has two children -- all of which informs her writing about modern issues.
