He also has a weekly feature with the Tulsa Zoo called “Wild Wednesdays” where Casey goes behind the scenes at the zoo. Viewers always learn something new about the animals and his fears of reptiles. If snakes are headed to the studio, be sure to set the VCRs. Casey could jump out of his chair at any second.
Casey has covered Oklahoma news since 1999 and says he is constantly amazed at the grace and genuine bond that all Oklahomans share. He witnessed that compassion first-hand during the recovery efforts after tornadoes and ice storms and through the enduring perseverance and vigilance after the Oklahoma City Bombing.

After graduating from The University of Texas, he began his career in Houston as a newswriter before taking his first reporting job in Tyler.

Casey and his wife, Jen, have two beautiful daughters, Caroline and Emma.

When Casey’s not at work or being Dad, he’s running the hills to get in shape or playing golf on one of the great Tulsa area courses.
