Kyle was raised in Anderson County, South Carolina, by two parents who served in the Marine Corps and a grandmother who worked in the mill in Oconee County. Growing up, Kyle’s father served the local community as a public school teacher, and his mother served the community as a prosecutor. His upbringing taught him the values of hard work, public service, and education.

 

Kyle put those skills to work in high school, where he worked on a farm and bussed tables in a local restaurant. Kyle is proud that he has been gainfully employed ever since he was legally able to apply for a job at the age of 14. While in high school at TL Hanna, Kyle was a state finalist for wrestling. Kyle went on to attend Clemson University, where he was a member of the Club Wrestling team. He graduated from Clemson in 2006 with a degree in marketing.
