Jessica grew up in Conway, SC, moved to Charleston in 2008 for law school and has been here ever since. Her favorite things about Charleston are how therapeutic the salty air and sea are and how much life is sustained by our unique Lowcountry ecosystem. Coastal South Carolina has a special place in her heart, and she is so grateful she gets to witness its beauty every single day!

Olivia McCoy

Olivia is originally from Lancaster, Pennsylvania. She has a lot of hobbies but lately has been learning to surf, making jewelry out of shells and shark teeth that she finds along the beach, creating content for social media, fostering animals at her local rescue, and enjoying pilates. She loves that living here allows her to be so immersed in nature.

She loves being outdoors. She enjoys biking, running, hiking, and camping. Katie also enjoys painting, photography, and traveling. Her favorite thing about Charleston is living so close to the coast.

Minell Enslin
Ocean Friendly Restaurant Coordinator

Minell moved to Charleston because she and her husband wanted to be closer to family but also because he received a great opportunity to work here in Charleston. On top of all that, she has always loved the ocean and can't imagine not living along the coast. Minell's favorite thing about Charleston is that you can almost always spot a dolphin in many of Charleston's waterways and along the South Carolina coastlines - how cool is that?!

Becky Sheftall
Hold On To Your Butts Coordinator

Becky was born and raised in Charleston and spent most of her time growing up in these local waters. She first became involved with Surfrider while living in Oahu. When she moved back to Charleston, she wanted to be part of a like-minded group of leaders who protect the coastal environments and wildlife, engage and educate the community in a fun and meaningful way, and make positive change. Becky's favorite thing about the Lowcountry is most certainly the coastal lands, marshes, and beaches.
