As a visual artist, I am the founder and creative director of The Casey BarberSHOP. Featuring a wide range of gifts for the pop culture-obsessed, the shop is home to my collection of Hamilton-inspired watercolor valentines and greeting cards—as seen in Slate, Mental Floss, the Huffington Post, and other outlets.
I received my masters degree in journalism from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University, and my undergraduate degree in English and visual art/art history from Bucknell University. I now live in northern New Jersey with my husband, two cats, and a freezer full of kielbasa and sour cherries.
