Casey built his design skills early on, laying out plans for a mansion when he was just a kid and taking that passion to drafting classes in high school and onto college. He enjoys the collaboration that working at Otak affords him and seeing how a group can come together as a well-oiled machine to achieve project goals. Casey is quick to mentor new co-workers and takes that same coaching to the community where he coaches youth sports. In his spare time he works on the ongoing restoration of his 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am and spends time with family.

Nick Cook
Right after college, Nick went to work for a survey crew in support of stream restoration projects in the mountains of North Carolina. That experience led him to continue his education so he could work in ecosystem restoration. He takes his passion for natural ecosystems home with him, admitting that floating down a scenic river with the potential of spotting wildlife in its natural habitat is what makes him happiest. Nick organizes the annual Otak whitewater rafting trip and also volunteers with various watershed groups doing everything from trash clean-ups to beaver and salmon activity surveys.
