Bio
Lauren Driscoll, AICP
I have known and worked with Casey for over a decade through local and state government/politics. Casey's ability to identify a problem, facilitate and implement a solution through sound communication and methodology is exceptional. Casey's ability to write and speak in a professional and public way is one of his greatest skills and something that I would consider a valued asset to any team.
Laura Oates Butcher
Casey is a natural leader with the ability to bring people from different sectors together to accomplish big goals. We worked with him on several projects during his time at ACLU Alaska and each experience it was amazing to be a part of the team that moved mountains with messaging, events, telling stories and elevating causes that deserved a voice and a stage. Casey is really organized and can quickly rally key players and manage tight deadlines and layered objectives while keeping those of us that had specific roles on task, with the information and opportunities we needed to complete our assignments. This attention to detail and project management made for many successful outcomes. When Casey calls us to join his team, we are always excited to be a part of a winning strategy!
