Casey is an actor/writer/dancer by day, aspiring adventurer (but mostly movie watcher and book reader) by night. She holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, where she had an academic focus in Producing, Political Science, and Irish Studies. She grew up in Philadelphia then proudly lived in New York City for 8 years without ever going clubbing because she doesn't like lame things. Casey currently resides in Los Angeles with her awesome dog and a lot of smog. In 5th grade, she won the Continental Math League Award. Enough! Stop asking about it!

As an actress, she's been fortunate enough to collaborate with spectacular writers, directors, actors, and noted DPs. In addition to her training at NYU with the Atlantic Theater Company, she has also studied under esteemed director and acting coach Maggie Kiley, as well as at the famed Groundlings School. She is a proud member of the Los Angeles Women's Film Collective and most recently, shot the feature-length film "Eating Cars." She has also starred in the short film, "Too Beautiful", and was even featured in an upcoming documentary, "Davi's Way", from Creative Chaos (Casting By, Thank You For Your Service).

Though often described as "CJ Cregg meets early Meg Ryan", a director recently told her that on camera, she is the spitting image of Ingrid Bergman. She's not sure if that's true (or fair to Ingrid Bergman), but definitely puts that one in the "win" column.

As a writer, she's completed multiple short films, sketches, and is currently writing a novel and feature-length screenplay, unlike anyone else in the Greater Los Angeles area. In the past, she's served as a staff writer for SongLyrics.com (a site that averages 300,000 hits/day), been a contributing writer for nycmagazine.com, penned multiple spec scripts ("The Daily Show" and "30 Rock", to name few), and ghosted a number of eBooks (which she can't name here because, you know...ghosted). She is also a reader/coverage writer for Entertainment One (eOne) and Communications Manger for a small business here in Los Angeles.

Casey is also a skilled athlete and long-time dancer, with over 15 years of experience and training. Skills include choreography, ballet, modern dance, tap, Broadway-style dance, and aerial stunts (antigravity yoga, silks, trapeze, pole). As a result, she (delusionally?) thinks she would make a badass survivor in the zombie apocalypse, not to mention an excellent time traveller.
