Meet Cassie

Meet Cassie!

Cassie Kodama is a licensed and certified Japanese Gel polish artist. Her favorite type of polish is soft potted gels. She has been an active freelance artist for 20 years and now has decided to bring her talents to nail art. She is specifically certified as an artist by Kokoist, Vetro, and Leafgel.

Cassie’s husband is from Japan, and it was on family trips to see her in-laws that she first fell in love with Japanese Gel polish. She still regularly visits family in Japan, which allows her to spot the latest nail trends. Cassie grew up in the 90s. As a child of the 90s, she loves popular characters from that time—My Little Pony, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Nick Toons like Rocko’s Modern Life and the Wild Thornberries. Being a dedicated fan herself, Cassie understands how important characters are to other fans, and she is excited to help bring your favorite characters to life through nail art!

When she’s not working, Cassie enjoys spending time with her husband, pre-teen son, and first-grade daughter. She studied Zoology in college, and she and her family are all big animal lovers who hold season passes to the Oregon Zoo.
