Casey and his team are pioneering a new kind of banking business, one whose origins go back to a small classroom at Dematha Catholic High School, where Crawford spent two years in high school.
“I went to Dematha to play football, basketball, and baseball,” Casey said, “But the lesson that has stayed with me the longest came from a teacher who taught philosophy there. One day, he wrote on the chalkboard love means acting in the long-term best interests of others. The phrase and the call have continued to shape my life ever since.”
Casey has been recognized as a John Maxwell Transformational Leader, an Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year finalist, and a Super Bowl champion. In the podcast, he brings a lively and self-deprecating wit to bear in recounting the ups and downs of his sports and business careers.
