Cassie Roby was raised in Destin, Florida, where she graduated from Niceville High School in 2015.

Within Northrop Grumman Cassie serves as the communications chair for the Northrop Grumman Women's International Network.
Throughout her studies, internships, and professional work, Cassie noticed a lack a women within the STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics) fields. When asked why young women are not interested in STEAM they say it's because they do not have mentors or read about STEM women in their science and history texts. That is why Cassie created Women in STEM, a a non-profit designed to connect women of all ages to the mentorship and resources they need to be successful and find their place in STEAM.






"The world of science needs more women, but from a young age we girls are encouraged to care more about the way we look than the power of our minds."
