Abby Hughes recently joined the marketing team as Marketing Coordinator at CASCO + R|5, where she oversees proposal development and leads the brand identity and website roll-out for the newly formed CASCO Civil group.

After earning her bachelor’s degree in advertising and public relations from the University of Southern Indiana and prior to joining CASCO + R|5, Abby offered a set of fresh eyes and new ideas in a variety of marketing roles in the publishing and architecture industries.

Outside of work, Abby explores her passion for animals and the outdoors. While at the University of Southern Indiana, she volunteered for the Humane Society and worked directly with the on-campus housing authority to pass legislation that eventually allowed students to have their therapy animals in university housing. She is an avid supporter of animal rescues and has four rescue animals of her own—three dogs and a cat. She occasionally vacations at Bald Head Island in North Carolina, where she has worked with the Bald Head Island Conservancy to help relocate sea turtle nests as a protective measure for the animals.

Abby devotes much of her free time to camping, hiking, backpacking and anything else that will exhaust her dogs. Non-dog related adventures that she enjoys include snowboarding at the local resort, attending sporting events and spending time with her friends and family.

CASCO + R|5 is thrilled to have Abby Hughes on board!
