Casey grew up in Omaha, Nebraska. She spent most of her adolescence participating in every after-school activity (to varying degrees of success), staying up late at night to read one more chapter, and forcing her friends and family to go to arthouse movies every weekend. She is abnormally concerned with air movement, rarely (if ever) comfortable outside the range of a good fan or air conditioned climes. She can often be found at Starbucks (due to her unfortunate peppermint mocha addiction) or pacing her apartment. Casey's future plans include writing TV comedies, learning at least one impressive piece on piano, and adopting a chinchilla whom she will fondly name Scooby.
