Cassandra Jacobs has a bachelor's degree in computer science. Her interest in computers dates back to the old Commodore 64 days and she became interested in computer crime due to her own experience with cyberstalking. She's had a wide and varied career, usually centered around some sort of computer work, such as programming, web application development, private investigation, and computer forensic technician. She holds a number of certificates in various fields of computer crime investigation from Knowledge Solutions, as well as Encase forensic training. She has over ten years of experience with many types of online communities, ranging from the early message boards on local dial-up BBS' and Usenet to mailing lists and message forums.
She is currently enjoying employment with a large Canadian bank in the IT Investigations and Security division, doing fraud and scam investigations as well as computer forensics. In her spare time, she likes to read a variety of books, design websites, cross-country cycle and beat up various types of monsters in the game "World of Warcraft". She currently resides with two very crazy (but loveable!) cats in the heart of Toronto.
