   Adene Cassidy Reporter
   
   Adene completed her Bachelor of Arts at Perth's Murdoch University in 1991. Three months later she landed her first job, as a Radio Producer for Howard Sattler, Western Australia's most successful and longest-running current affairs radio host.
   
   Adene worked in this position for 6PR for three-and-a-half years, her work recognised with an Australian National RAWARD for Best Newcomer Off-Air. During her time with Howard Sattler, Adene covered stories such as the rescue of Tony Bullimore and the tragedy at Port Arthur.
   
   She also had the privilege of attending the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner in Washington in 1997, with correspondent Connie Lawn.
   
   In 1998 Adene joined the Today Tonight team at Seven Perth as a field producer and researcher. The following year she began her career as a reporter.
   
   For the next two years Adene worked with the Perth team, covering local and national stories. Her most rewarding story was exposing an undercover car racket. The story prompted the WA Government to re-examine its penalties and tighten laws.
   
   In 2001 Adene moved to New South Wales and joined the Today Tonight team in Sydney.
   
   Adene has covered many interesting stories since landing in Sydney, including an expose on the illegal trading of handguns and a three-month investigation into the fraudulent trading of building certificates, which led to further investigation by the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC).
   
   In her spare time Adene loves to travel and enjoys spending time with family and friends.
