About Kase
Hi! It’s nice to meet you. I’m Kase Wickman, and I’ve turned my passion for overthinking into a profession. Whether I’m communing with Bronies, obsessing over the 2000 cinematic masterpiece BRING IT ON, or working some creative strategy magic on a brief, I dive deep, look at every angle and come out the other side with a compelling story to tell you.
I have a BS in journalism and full-time experience in newsrooms (MTV News, New York Post, Vanity Fair), freelance (New York Times, Vanity Fair, New York Magazine, Cosmopolitan), long-form (my first non-fiction book, about the movie BRING IT ON, will be published in 2022 by Chicago Review Press) and in branded content and content/brand strategy (past clients include Facebook, GrubHub, TIAA, Pizza Hut, IMAX, Squarespace, and more). Print, digital, audio, interactive, and on-camera, you name it — I’ve even been known to sketch on a Post-It when the spirit moves me.
I also like to sew (thanks, I made it), bake, window-shop online (and write about it in Shop Your Feelings), and whatever else has caught my attention this week.
Want to work together? Get in touch!
Hold on, you wrote a book?
BRING IT ON: THE COMPLETE STORY OF THE CHEERLEADING MOVIE THAT CHANGED, LIKE, EVERYTHING (NO, SERIOUSLY) will be published by Chicago Review Press in late 2022. Written by me, Kase!
With brand new interviews with the cast and crew of the most underappreciated movie of 2000, as well as commentary, criticism and notable quotables from cultural experts and real fans, I explore the lasting impact of BRING IT ON, two-plus decades later. It’s the poo, so take a big whiff.
Publishers Weekly calls it a “peppy debut,” doesn’t that sound nice?
A real piece of (recent) work.
