"Each time I raised my hand to learn about a part of the business or lead a special project, the answer was always 'yes.' RangeWater has always encouraged me to push boundaries and innovate," Casaday said. "Now, as I lead our Capital Markets team from the executive level, we will continue to focus on strategic investments, partnerships, and deployment of capital.

"It's a pivotal moment for RangeWater in which we're evaluating, developing and refining our standards and systems to achieve our aggressive goals," Sweitzer said. "We're putting an incredible focus on building best practices across the company. I see my role as partnering with the leaders of each of our business lines both to execute on our transactions and to build the efficient processes and structure that will allow us to grow the enterprise.
