Casey is a new homesteader and is teaching his children to do the same. He is also passionate about fitness and works out nearly every day.
One of his favorite quotes is from Jordan B. Peterson, “You’re not everything you could be, and you know it.” He looks forward to sharing his faith, advocating for people as they progress through their recovery, and partnering with others to bring lives to their full potential.
