Bartlett's staff in 2001, and he served as his chief of staff beginning in 2003.[13][8][9] Bartlett considered not running for reelection in 2012, and Otis resigned from Bartlett's staff in December 2011 when the fact that he was actively lining up support to run for his boss's seat before Bartlett had decided to retire, made it impossible for him to continue as chief of staff.[9][10][11][12] Otis ended up deciding not to run for the office.[13] Otis served as chair of the Ethics Commission of Frederick County from 2012 to 2013.[14][15] Otis joined as a campaign adviser for David E.
