About Me

I'm Thomas Casey, co-founder of Casey Barrett, and I help individuals and families build financial strategies grounded in education, empathy, and trust. Finance touches every part of life, yet most people have limited access to the education or guidance they need to navigate it confidently.

The Early Days

I grew up on Long Island, New York, and earned my bachelor's degree in Communications from SUNY Albany in 2013. That same year, I moved across the country to Santa Rosa, California, with two long-time friends and bandmates to pursue a career in music.

Like many young musicians, I juggled multiple jobs—working at Chipotle and taking on side gigs—while navigating a new city and chasing a dream.

Early Career

While music remains a core part of my life, I quickly realized the importance of building a more stable and fulfilling career. After a number of interviews with financial institutions, I found my path with New York Life.

At just 22 years old, with no existing client base and no industry experience, I began the work of building my practice from the ground up.

Where We Are Now

I credit my ability to stay and thrive in Sonoma County to this profession—and I credit Sonoma County with helping shape the kind of advisor I’ve become.

Over the past decade, I’ve come to appreciate just how much impact a well-built financial strategy can have.

Community Involvement

A Financial Advisor Who Leads With Care

When I’m not working with clients, I continue to play drums in local bands, both live and in studio sessions. I’m also an active member of the Active 20-30 Rohnert Park & Cotati #656, a nonprofit that raises funds and resources for underserved youth in Sonoma County.

If you're looking for a financial advisor who leads with clarity, consistency, and care—I’d be honored to connect.
