It’s time to spread our wings and fly
Don’t let another day go by my love
It’ll be just like starting over
Starting over

– (Just Like) Starting Over — John Lennon

Hello, world!

Welcome to my food science/personal blog! I’ve actually had several WordPress blogs in the past (and still have a couple!) – but for some reason, I’ve never been able to do a very good job maintaining them. My goal for this particular blog is to use it as a platform to document my progression in my professional career, as well as talk about other random stuff that happens in life. So in a way, it’s sort of like starting over towards something new haha!

To introduce myself: My name is Cassie — I’m 22 years old (as I write this particular post) from the United States! I recently graduated from The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and majored in Food Science and Human Nutrition, with my concentration in food science. In a few weeks, I will be moving out to Evansville, Indiana to embark my first full-time role in the food industry; which to be honest, is both an intimidating yet exciting moment in my life. I’ll talk about this stuff in detail later, so I’ll just leave things here for the time being!

FYI: I’m also a huge fan of classic rock music, so you might see some song lyrics scattered throughout this blog!

All the best,

Cassie
