Hope Whaley,
Client Service Associate, RJFS
How do you empower your clients to live their Signature Life?
I empower clients by listening and providing encouragement with clear and consistent communications and kind and genuine conversation. I’m a planner, and I always have been. Having a personalized plan is vital. Not having a plan is a plan to fail. Come see me-I know some people!
What does your life look like outside of the office?
My life outside the office looks joyful and peppy! I am married to my wonderful husband, Curt, and we have two spirited boys, Simon and Solomon, and our toy parti poodle, Sassy. We live in Coward, about 25 minutes from Florence. We love glamping, playing sports (baseball and football), snow skiing, and spending as much time together as possible. I love coffee, strawberry cake, watching movies, shopping, and holding Sassy!
What can you tell us about your professional journey?
I am a native of South Carolina, originally from Charleston. I hold an Associate’s Degree in Business from Florence-Darlington Technical College. Before graduating, I began my administrative career early, serving and supporting four different Florence County non-profit organizations for a total of 25 years. I have also served as assistant to the Headmaster at Trinity Collegiate School, a legal assistant at Calcutt Law Firm, and a personal assistant to Anne Marie Hanna, CPA, LLC. I joined the Signature Wealth team in Florence, SC, in November of 2021.
