The son of a small business owner, Micah started working long before he had a driver's license.

Micah commanded both company and platoon-sized units during his two combat tours of duty in Al Anbar Province, Iraq.

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.
