Wyatt’s passion for working with college students was sparked during his time as an instructor at the University of Georgia, where he earned his Master of Fine Arts in theatre and the interdisciplinary certificate in university teaching. He earned his Master of Social Work from the University of South Carolina and most recently provided behavioral health counseling to college students during his internship at Presbyterian College’s Counseling Services Center.
Wyatt is a native of Clemson, SC, and he graduated from Wesleyan University in Connecticut with an undergraduate degree in philosophy. When he’s not working, you can usually find Wyatt spending time with his wife and son; together they enjoy gardening, exploring nature, and visiting train museums. Wyatt also enjoys playing folk music, running, reading eerie science fiction and practicing yoga.
