Mike was first introduced to Campus Outreach as a freshman at Furman University by friends who cared about Jesus and cared about others. After college, Mike joined staff and has served in a variety of roles mostly in operations and administration. Carrie went on the Summer Beach Project after her freshman year of college through connections with friends in her dorm. It was a big step of faith for her. She then became an active part of CO for the rest of her college years and ended up coming on staff. She left CO after a couple of years to minister to military families, but made her way back to the team after marrying Mike in 2009. Now Mike serves all 8 regions of the East Coast Network by developing, training, and consulting the administrative (resource) staff and administrative offices. Both he and Carrie minister locally to staff and students in the Clemson, SC area.
