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.

"Quite literally, ALL other aspects of your life will blossom in ways you didn't expect because of how good your body, mind, and spirit will feel from the satisfaction of having done this for yourself."
Logan D.
"Working with Coach Casey has been so easy due to her consistency at out check-ins and her endless encouragement. She helps answer questions I have fully so I feel confident with my choices between each check in. She also helps reassure me of the steady positive progress we've been making."

"Casey changed my mental struggles and put a stop to the “always searching for more” behavior. Despite not being crazy strict, weighing myself every other day and timing my meals, I’ve made progress. I can feel it. I wasn’t able to say that before because I let the numbers (scale and BF%) dictate how I felt. It’s been a refreshing 3 months working with Casey to say the least."
