Otto's education began at the Florida Local Schools, Henry County, Ohio, and continued at the Defiance College with an interruption while he served in the U.S. Army. Upon discharge he resumed his education at Defiance College, where he received a baccalaureate degree. He received a master's degree, and Ed.S in education from Bowling Green State University with further post graduate work at the University of Toledo. His educational career began at the Deshler Local Schools, now part of the Patrick Henry District. He was then hired by the Four County Joint Vocational School as part of the first administrative team of that school, which is now known as the Four County Career Center. Upon the retirement in 1982 of then superintendent Robert Durbin, Otto was appointed superintendent of the district and held that position until he retired in 1995. He was then hired by Lima Technical College, now Rhodes College to head the Tech Prep Program, which he did until 2001. Not ready to hang it up yet, he took a position with High Schools That Work out of the Toledo office. This he held until health issues forced him to retire. During his years in the educational field, he was much appreciated and respected by his peers on the local and state levels having headed and served on various committees. Otto was an active member at First Lutheran Church in Stryker, Ohio, and upon moving to Hudson, Ohio, he became a member of Gloria Dei Lutheran Church.
