PS260 has added Cassandra “Cas” Jolie to its editorial roster–a multidisciplinary creative whose work as a graphic designer, animator and video editor spans a diverse client roster, including META, Hinge, Champs, NASA, Capitol Records, Def Jam Recordings, and Macy’s. Her career began in graphic design, where her creativity inspired to bring her work to life and explore more styles leading her to animation, and eventually editing.
“My goal is to always create work that feels honest and relatable to the human experience–whether that’s exploring mental health, identity, current events, or the emotional realities people navigate every day,” she said. “I’m excited to be surrounded by people who genuinely value creativity, collaboration, and community, and I hope to grow both personally and professionally, contribute a unique perspective shaped by my experiences, and bring authenticity, hard work, and openness to every project and relationship I build here. It’s been a long journey getting to this point, and recognition, teamwork, and support haven’t always come easily to me. A lot of my creative journey has involved hustling and fighting to be seen, but now being a part of PS260 feels like a true fit.”
“We’re so thrilled to have Cas join us at PS260, and add her creativity and singular perspective to our toolbox,” said Matt Posey, partner and editor at PS260. “Everything that Cas does has such a human quality to it. Her edits, through their easy flow and instant style, to her personal graphic technique that’s both original and comfortingly familiar, come together to capture true, authentic feeling in all her work. PS260 is a house built on creative collaboration, and Cas’s collaborative spirit and unmistakably genuine presence brings the kind of energy that makes the creative process more dynamic and just more fun.”
Cas has a deep specialization in branding, motion design, and digital content creation across music, culture, and lifestyle-driven campaigns to create work that feels both intentional and culturally resonant. Her experience across all forms of media has shaped a distinct creative perspective, resulting in work that stands apart from traditional in feed ads, creating content people want to engage with, rather than skip the moment it appears.
As a proud Boricua, her cultural heritage is a huge driving force behind her commitment to diverse storytelling, representation, and visually expressive design. Her strong focus in culturally driven design, while using her perspective to shape inclusive visual narratives, and maintaining a high standard of creative execution across fast-paced campaign environments, is what made her stand out to the creative media studio.
“My culture is deeply important to me, so I hope to find meaningful ways to represent and uplift Latino voices and stories,” she said. “I’ve always believed in the importance of making space for underrepresented perspectives, and that’s something I’ll continue to strive for in both my creative work and collaborations.”
In addition to video editing and graphic design, Cas is also a musician, known as CSNDRA, who recently went on tour with her band across the West Coast this past February. She attributes music to keeping her grounded, and is one of the biggest sources of her creativity as it plays a part in her everyday life. For her, growing up in a Latino household meant that music was always playing loudly–while they cooked, cleaned, hosted family and spent time together in general. It’s become a way for her to connect and create memories, and is something that she carried into adulthood.
Ultimately, according to Cas, being an artist has taught her a lot about collaboration, storytelling, and creative expression, and she always brings that same energy into the way she thinks and works every day. “Honestly, I think being an artist is just in my blood.”
