Meet the Casago Annapolis Team!

With over two decades of leadership experience across numerous fields, Randell Smith brings a strategic and engaging approach to vacation rental and portfolio management. His background encompasses honorable service in the U.S. Army Medical Service Corps, followed by earning his Juris Doctorate in 2013. His leadership experience spans from legal and financial services to insurance defense and entrepreneurship.

Beyond business, Randell has been a husband for over two decades and a father of three who is active in his community and family life. He is an active member of the Anne Arundel County Association of Realtors (AACAR), Vacation Rental Management Association (VRMA), National Association of Property Managers (NARPM), National Association of Realtors (NAR), Member of the Virginia Chamber of Commerce, and Member of the National Notary Association.

Randell is joined by Danette Fastner, Local Operations Manager, as well as Property Crew Leaders Lucy Fastner and Jennifer Gaines.

As Local Operations Manager since 2022, Danette strives for perfection and above all solidifying a great relationship with homeowners. With nearly 1½ decades in the property management industry, Danette perfected her skills first as the owner of a cleaning company and then as Property Manager before stepping into her current role. She is proudly the mother of 6 and Lala of 3, along with two dogs and a pair of goats.

Property Crew Leaders Lucy Fastner and Jennifer Gaines joined the team in 2023 and 2022 respectively. Lucy, as a new mom, and Jenn, a grandmother and mother of three, are masters of multitasking with a careful eye for detail.

Prior to becoming a full-time Property Crew Leader, Lucy had been working in property care since 2018 as an essential energetic go-to assistant. Her bubbly and talkative personality continues to delight homeowners and she is sure to treat every vacation rental with the same care she’d give her own home.

Equally ready to jump in to ensure homeowner confidence and guest satisfaction, Jenn joined the property management team in Annapolis after having lived and worked in other states for over two decades. Her meticulous attention to detail translates into welcoming stays for guests.

Our entire Casago Annapolis team works at providing five-star hospitality to guests, while preserving the trust of our homeowners.
