Casey Yetter

By Macy Boyett

Casey Yetter is a student at Stephen F. Austin University. She is from a small town on the north side of Houston, TX called Willis. It is a small town. It consist of only two middle schools, and one high school. She played in the band all four years of high school. She was passionate about playing the trumpet. She has a supporting family that is always there for her. Her parents support her, and encourage her in whatever she chooses to do. Her father is a police officer, and her mother is a florist. She makes flower arrangements for different things like: weddings, funerals, high school dances, etc. An interesting fact about her father is whenever Casey was a child, she would ride around in her fathers police car with him, and get to listen to all the phone calls people would make about different crime going on in the town. Casey also has an older brother who is 21. He also attends Stephen F. Austin University.  Casey has no job currently, but last summer she worked the night shift at Walmart for stocking, and she said it was miserable. Her favorite vacation was when she went to Jamaica, and got to go zip lining in the jungle. She is a transfer student from Corpus Christie A&M. She decided to transfer to SFA because the weather in Corpus was very hot, and also her brother persuaded her. Her major is radio television. Casey chose this as her major because she has always been interested in TV shows, and how they operate. She wants to do behind the scenes work and make sure everything in the show is running smoothly, and correctly. She realized she had a passion for this whenever she was watching TV shows throughout high school, and she caught herself more interested in how the show was operating, instead of what was actually happening in the film. Casey wants to find a fun internship somewhere for her major, but she doesn’t want to stay in Texas. She wants to go travel and see how major productions are produced. “I want to work behind the scenes of a show like American Idol,” Casey says. Although she plans on graduating from Stephen F. Austin, she is still going to keep her eyes open for any possible opportunity that might come her way. Her dream would be to go to Hollywood, and see an actual production being filmed. She is a determined girl and ready to see what the world has to offer.
