Kassandra’s research focuses on disability representation in media, particularly in the Black Mirror series. Her award-winning essay, Invisible yet Omnipresent: The Future of Disability as Reflected in Black Mirror, examines how disability is portrayed as a looming threat while being systematically erased in the show. This work intersects with her broader interests in science fiction, critical theory, and audiovisual text analysis.
She received the 2021-2022 Essay Contest Winner award in the Upper-level Category for her contributions to literary discourse. As a tutor, she emphasizes accessibility and mentorship, encouraging peers to engage in volunteer programs.
