Cassandra Balbas

Sr. Product Designer, Design Systems Lead at Backpack Interactive

Cassandra is passionate about serving her local community through design. After graduating from the University of California Irvine with degrees in Informatics and Art, she came back to help manage and mentor the design team within their Student Government Student Media department. There, she worked closely with students to create visuals for events that strived for inclusion, greater accessibility to student resources, improved mental and physical health, and a well-rounded university life for students. She continues to create tools to help educators and students reach their goals.

When she isn’t designing, you can find her roaming bookstores, trying out new Filipino recipes in the kitchen, or browsing through photos of pugs.
