Casey grew up in Santa Rosa and went to the University of San Francisco for her BS. She then went to Washington State University where she earned her MS.  As a graduate student, her research focus was on Couette flow simulations in molecular dynamics.  She is a new addition to the faculty as of 2015.  She especially looks forward to helping students who have "math-phobia" feel comfortable and successful in math class.

In her downtime, Casey’s favorite thing to do is play with her yellow lab mix, Nala.  She also enjoys spending time with her husband, going to conferences, and looking at dog pictures on the internet.
