About Abby Casey
Identifying one’s passion is hard enough, let alone successfully working within your passion, a lifelong dream for most. I was lucky enough to find a strong connection to the outdoors at a very young age, which led me to my career in the outdoor industry. Like many of us I was introduced into the outdoors by my father. He was able to instill in me the importance of conservation and protection of the great outdoors as a child.
My first opportunity in the outdoor industry was an internship at Realtree Outdoors. After my internship and learning the ropes in the video department, I was hired as a videographer, youtube manager and editor at Realtree. During my time there I developed and hosted a fun fast paced YouTube series called Realtree life. From the Realtree life series I was scouted to host and help build the outdoor portion of the then new media company, Rated Red. In my 2 years At Rated Red I hosted over 600 videos and produced over 30 pieces in the field.
Now I have recently started on a new adventure as I create content about the outdoors under my own brand AC Outdoors. Here I plan to develop a diverse audience to whom I can communicate the value of conservation and the outdoor adventure lifestyle.
