Cassie Mordini
Director
Wisconsin Office of Outdoor Recreation
Cassie Mordini is the Director of the Wisconsin Office of Outdoor Recreation. Created by the Department of Tourism, the Office is charged with supporting and uplifting Wisconsin’s diverse outdoor recreation industry for the benefit of all.
Mordini joined the Wisconsin Office of Outdoor Recreation in February 2020 as one of the original staff hired to the newly created Office and became director in January 2024. During her first four years, she was integral to building the infrastructure of the Office. Mordini brings her nearly two decades of experience in the outdoor industry – spanning retail, nonprofit and government – to the director role where she leads strategy and program development. She feels truly privileged to channel her experiences and passion into her work strengthening the outdoor industry.
A lifelong Wisconsinite who grew up building forts in the woods and spending summer weekends on the river, Cassie has a deep appreciation for the natural wonders of the state and endeavors to show it all to her two kids, with husband and dog in tow. When asked what her favorite activity is, she’ll tell you, “anything outside.”
