Upstate Forever, one of South Carolina’s leading environmental and conservation organizations, announced last week that Andrea Cooper has been selected as its new executive director. Cooper will fill the considerable shoes of Brad Wyche, who left Wyche PA in 1998 to found Upstate Forever and has served as its executive director since that time. Cooper has previously served as chair of the board of directors of the South Carolina Coastal Conservation League and has been a partner in both a commercial real estate firm and an international social impact group.
