ABOUT ME
Hi, I’m Bree Cassady (formerly Bree Del Sordo). I am an English teacher and creative. I like to tell stories, bringing visions into reality, through any and all possible mediums. I have a Teaching Credential in the subject of English, a master’s degree in “Ethics, Peace and Global Affairs,” and a second master’s degree in “Education.” I also have a professional certification in Web Development and Design. Prior to earning my teaching credential, I worked at several non-profits and volunteered many hours of my time. Subsequently, I was a small business owner of an e-commerce site. And I served as a substitute teacher for three years in the greater San Diego area. I have always loved art and creativity, whether it be through writing, crafts, drawing, or computer graphics. Please, come explore my world…

“When you learn, TEACH. When you get, GIVE” -Maya Angelou
I will never stop learning and acquiring. Here is what I have to share. Check my blog posts for more ELA resources and ideas.
ANIMATION & INTERACTIVITY
I enjoy creating animations, games and other interactive pieces. Most of the work you will find in this section was created using Adobe Animate CC, the Create.js framework, and pure JavaScript.
“Laughter is timeless, imagination has no age and dreams are forever… if you can dream it, you can do it” – Walt Disney
There is nothing like art in movement. I believe animation to be one of the most profound art mediums. The Latin word “anima” literally means breath or soul. Animation gives soul to art. The beauty of animation is that it is not restricted by the confines of the physical world…Anything is possible!

CREATIVE ART
Almost all of my graphic art was created using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. In this section of my portfolio you will find photograph manipulation, digital watercolor paintings and minimalistic vector art.
