Meet Casey.

Who Am I?

I was a bit lost in my twenties. After struggling in high school, I jumped into college because I thought it was the expected next step. I started and stopped several times. The simple truth is that I wasn't ready. I wandered from job to job, never really finding where I belonged. I couldn't escape the feeling that I wasn't living up to my potential. Motivated by a sense of patriotism and a desire to improve my life, I joined the United States Air Force.

My very first supervisor wrote on a feedback form that I was "a leader among his peers." I had never been called a leader before. In all honesty, I'm not sure I understood what the word meant. But at that very moment, my lifelong examination of leadership began.

​

I would eventually obtain a graduate degree in the study of leadership. Along the way, I read and studied the various leadership philosophies that existed. I found that some worked, and some didn't. I found that some people responded to one form of leadership, while others responded to different approaches. I learned that leadership is much less about philosophies and tactics, and much more about conversations and relationships. 

​

Leadership changes lives. Once we understand that, it is our responsibility to become the very best leader that we can be.
