Meet Micah

Micah Caskey lives in Springdale, South Carolina — right where he was born and raised. He attended local public schools in Lexington 2 School District, grew up in McGregor Presbyterian Church, played sports all over town, and completed his Eagle Scout project at Harbison State Forest.

The son of a small business owner, Micah started working long before he had a driver's license. Working in his father's locksmith shop taught Micah that nothing in life is free — everything worth having has to be earned. Hard work matters. That work ethic helped him earn a full scholarship to college. 

After college, Micah spent the next several years on active duty in the Marine Corps — rising to the rank of Captain. Micah commanded both company- and platoon-sized units during his two combat tours of duty in Al Anbar Province, including Fallujah and Ramadi, Iraq. Later, in 2009, Micah left law school for a year to continue his service to the country; it was during that year that he commanded a small team of specialized Marines in Helmand Province, Afghanistan.  

Micah returned from Afghanistan and completed his law degree at the University of South Carolina. He also earned a master's degree in International Business Administration in the #1-ranked international M.B.A. program at the University of South Carolina's Darla Moore School of Business. While in graduate school, Micah studied abroad in Europe and in Latin America, where he learned to speak Spanish.

After graduating, Micah worked in an international firm as a management consultant in Alaska.  In that capacity, he worked with Fortune 100 clients in the Oil & Gas industry to increase profitability and improve safety culture.
