From an early age she cultivated a love for the natural world that inspired her debut poetry book Growing Gills-an imaginative collection of poems transporting readers to the waters of a pond, a river, and the vast ocean exploring the world's deep mysteries. Fire and Flourishing is her second poetry book inspired by hard lessons, life changing growth, and a cross-country move out of California in the midst of wildfire season. Kassi lives in Ohio with her husband, sons, and dog.view less
