In November, the Council welcomed its newest staff member. Peter Casey joined the Council in the position of Project Manager Assistant. He is based in the Anchorage office.
Casey was born and raised in St. Paul, Minnesota, and attended the University of Glasgow where he earned a bachelor’s degree in history and politics.
Prior to working with the Council, he held various jobs in youth development, including as the program director of multiple summer camps and running a greenhouse and vocational training program in Anchorage.
He is replacing Jaina Willahan, who held the position since 2021. Willahan is staying on staff until early December to help train Casey.
