Hi Wendy,
You can do that through the issue detailed screen, click on the Edit button and then you can change the assignee from there.
You can also use the keyboard shortcut to change the assignee by clicking on the button a in your keyboard when you are viewing an issue.
I hope that helps.
Cheers,
