As the Administrative Assistant Hope is one of the first people you will come in contact with when visiting or calling Able SC! She has been with the organization since 2009 and has a laundry list of duties that help the staff stay on track. Much of her day is spent working to make things run smoothly from calls, verifying benefits, data entry, mailing, and copying, as well as helping caption Able SC videos and ensuring digital presentations are accessible.

She was born in Colorado Springs but has lived in Columbia, SC, all her life. In 2003, she went to technical school for Computer Administration. She loves to read, write, and sing (although she claims her singing is just a joyful noise). She also loves pasta and is a huge Gamecock fan!
