In growing Cascade365, I’ve always been focused on culture. How do we create a work environment that is safe, productive, fun and recognizes team members not only for their accomplishments on the job but also as human beings (dad, mom, coach, etc.)? How do we encourage positivity, a sense of humor, patience, and empathy? One [...]
While Northern California experiences yet another deluge of rain, I hope everyone is enjoying the change in season and that Spring has sprung for you. The time of year and observing Cascade365’s 15th anniversary has me focused on new beginnings. We started in a small office on California St. in the heart of San Francisco’s financial [...]
The financial crisis of 2008 was steeped in uncertainty and strife. In this maelstrom, however, opportunity and entrepreneurism led me to found Cascade365. I had a young family and was recently out of a job, pondering next steps after selling my previous company, Glass Mountain Capital, LLC. I decided to stay in the business of [...]

For those that celebrate, I hope you had a Happy Halloween! Personally, it’s one of my favorite holidays. Carving jack o’ lanterns, roasting the pumpkin seeds for a salty snack, seeing the kids dressed up, and then pillaging their candy reserves while they sleep; what could be better!? At Cascade365, we celebrate with an annual [...]
When I think about successful teamwork, the first thing that comes to mind is sports. From my beloved 1989 San Francisco 49ers, a team stacked with offensive leaders, to the UCLA Bruins men’s basketball dynasty led by Coach John Wooden. Productive teams have something in common: they strive to achieve a common goal by working [...]
I am proud to say that compliance continues to be front and center for the Cascade365 Family of Companies. The compliance department recently expanded and welcomed Jayla James as its newest member. She joins the team with a wealth of experience in training, quality assurance, audit, and remediation. She will be instrumental in helping the [...]
The end of summer transition to fall is one of my favorite times of year. Cool nights, the excitement of back to school, football season and, in my neck of the woods, the smell of freshly cut hay that fragrantly wafts through the air. It’s also time to plan for the fall and winter months [...]
Our work ethic is one of the core tenets of Cascade365. My favorite word to describe this key part of our culture is "grit." It isn't a pretty word; it's guttural, and it can be used to describe rough, coarse pieces of sand or rocks. But I use it on a weekly, if not daily, [...]
