About Me
My name is Casey Marie Gossling. I was born and raised on a farm south of Waucoma, Iowa. I grew up as a "Tom Boy" and followed my dad almost everywhere. I loved the outdoors and all the little pleasures farm life offered. I always had dogs and cats to keep me company and found comfort in riding with my dad in the tractor for twelve hours a day.
My family consists of my dad, mom, older sister Kelly, and younger sister Dayna. My dad is a self-employed farmer and my mom works at Fayette County Abstract & Appraisal in West Union, Iowa. Kelly is now 23 years old and works as a social worker in Decorah, Iowa. I am 21 years old and a senior at Wartburg College. I am studying to be an elementary education or early childhood teacher. Dayna is 16 and attends high school at Turkey Valley.

While at Wartburg, I work at the college library several hours a week. Some of my hobbies are fishing, boating, swimming, playing volleyball, and cooking. I love watching the Food Network channel and trying out new recipes. I love shopping with my family and friends and finding cheap clothes! Carver, Bonzo, and Lizzie are my precious dogs who I love spending time with. My favorite thing in this world is spending time with family, friends, and my boyfriend.
