Favorite Quote:
“For a seed to achieve its greatest expression, it must come completely undone. The shell cracks, its insides come out and everything changes. To someone who doesn't understand growth, it would look like complete destruction.” — Cynthia Occelli
A coach with M2 since 2017, Casey brings consistency, compassion, and deep expertise to every client she supports. With a Bachelor of Science in Physical Education (Exercise Science concentration) from Old Dominion University, a minor in Sports Management, and certifications in hormone health, metabolism, and gut biology, she blends science with heart in everything she does.
Casey’s coaching philosophy is rooted in long-term growth, not short-term extremes. Whether you’re a high-performing athlete, a busy parent, or someone trying to repair their relationship with food, Casey meets you where you are, offering practical strategies, emotional support, and the accountability to make real change stick.
For Casey, the most rewarding part of coaching is watching clients rediscover their confidence, improve their mental health, and reach milestones they once thought were out of reach.
“The opportunity to be a part of someone's journey to better health, providing support and education, and watching them grow, is what makes this work so meaningful.”
Outside of coaching, Casey is a mom, a former Division I field hockey player, and the wife of a firefighter. Having lived the demands of shift work and unpredictable schedules by her husband’s side, she knows firsthand how to navigate nutrition, performance, and wellness in real life, not just on paper. She enjoys moving her body in many ways, especially CrossFit classes and long bike rides. When it’s time to slow down, you’ll find her curled up with her husband, kids, and two pups, cheering on Notre Dame football (a lifelong tradition), proudly rooting for the Washington Commanders, or watching nearly every Phillies game.
Client Testimonials
Leah S.
"Without Casey’s guidance and reassurance I never would’ve been able to reach my goals and been fueled to reach those goals as I did in the open and the AGOQ. Casey was SO great, SO knowledgeable, and SO relatable and after working with her for 6 months I never would’ve been able to have a mindset change around food- I am so much happier now and even more confident in my skin than I was before."

"I love my coach she was there, knowledgeable, encouraging, and uplifting. She made me feel like she really cared and not just on the nutrition level, but on a personal one as well. That made a huge difference for me! I'm very thankful for Casey!"
