“I truly feel that some of the best ideas are generated through collaboration and not one person.”

When Cas is not working, he is busy at home. His wife is his rock, and he is so thankful that she puts up with him and his (sometimes) crazy passions. Cas and his wife have two kids, a five-year-old, and a two-year-old that take up the majority of their time. Between playing with dolls and play-dough, throwing baseballs, and wrestling, he manages to get out and run and bike. He loves being active. It makes him feel good and helps him think.

“I can remember being captivated by my dad sketching out plans of the house that he wanted to build. It was very inspiring.”
